My name is Matthew and I love, love, love, love, love running (the verb and the gerund). Everything to do with it, I love. The painful feeling of being drained, the heightened endorphins, the training, the coaching, the racing, and the gear (Short shorts or gtfo). I did XC and track year round for 3 years in H.S., and now I'm just running freely in college. I ran my first ultra (50k) February 2012 and it was FANTASTIC. I'll definitely do more in the future.

I'm also a vegetarian wanting to go vegan eventually.

Besides running, I love oreos, water, movies, reading, hanging out with my friends, chips ahoy, feeling clean, going shirtless around the house, colorful things, etc.

I know this isn’t a picture of nike shoes or whatever, but it’s of my friend at 2010 nike nationals, at the first muddy turn, she fell and was trampled, but finished the race. She need about 26 stitches. She is an inspiration.
Also: if you look at the bottom of her ankle, the blood running down her leg looks like a nike swoosh (:

 this is fucking awesome

 I remember reblogging this before… but it’s still amazing. Not saying I want something like this to happen to me, but it’s cool when stuff like that does, and you still come out victorious.

AWESOME! So bad ass. Hopefully during my ultra, a bear or coyote will attack me, I’ll have to kick its ass with my bare hands while getting bleeding scratch marks across my chest, and then I shall be known as Coyote Bigman for the rest of my life and everyone will revere me as a resident BAMF.
