Nike - Onwards by James Jarvis

Animation by James Jarvis. Directed by Richard Kenworthy, and music courtesy of Caribou (Crayon was a great choice). Nike did sponsor this piece but I am enjoying this trend of really unobtrusive marketing.

The animation, directing, and music was all quite wonderful. It felt really good watching it.

Love how he looked back once at the end, and kept on running.

Glad Nike supported something so nice. Unobtrusive marketing is right.

This reminds me so much of all the 14 mile+ long runs I have been on. You start out your run and the sun is still barely out but by the end it is nighttime. In the 2 hours you are running you feel like you have experienced so much, whether it be rain, running through a weird neighborhood, getting attacked by an animal, or seeing an amazing view that you wont forget. Your whole mind is cleared after. A weird feeling that only runners know.Whoever drew this/directed this was definitely a runner.

ha, cycling is easy, as both a cyclist and a runner i can tell you that. my last metric century took me a bit under 5 hours (with 2500m of climbing, so it wasnt a flat ride) and that is MUCH, MUCH easier than 2 hours of running.

I saw this video before, it is great. Writer & Runner Marciano Durán wrote a beautiful piece about runners i in Spanish "Esos Locos que corren" if you know Spanish look it up you will like it :)

I love how runners get into this "my sport is HARD" mindset, putting 26.2 stickers on their cars and using distance euphemisms like they do in these video comments.

I'm a cyclist, and do around 12+ training weekly, because I like it. Let's see, that puts me at 3 4-hour marathons per week. Maybe I should get a shirt and a hat with bike wheels on them?
