Oh my goodness maiden voyage is always an exciting day and Especially for a shoe that I loved I loved it in 2018 But the risk in second iterations after such hype from the first version is that they changed the shoe too much Through the upper especially I'm just feeling it right now as I'm putting it on my foot Yeah, mama here we go Look who I found Good to see you sir finally meet you good to meet you doing well find it.

Yeah Yeah We're just having a good time here on the lakefront and I actually want to reflect real quick Many of you don't know this we started on YouTube. That's right almost at the same time Yeah, you were ahead of me a little bit just a little bit. Yeah, this is 2016, right? Oh years ago years ago Back with neither of us. We were we were both running but not on YouTube. It was crazy regular daily vloggers We were daily vloggers. I don't even remember how we found each other probably because we were doing for other daily vloggers Yeah, and there was a lot of family vloggers and mommy vloggers, but not a lot of dad vloggers. Yeah, that's how we connected, right? There you go. And then basically we're both runners and Ko-Fuzy niches down a lap about what maybe 18 months ago something like that. Yeah approximately less than two years Yeah, and then I was kind of dragging my feet a little bit and Eventually did the same I was pushing you, right? I didn't want to tell you what to do But no, I was suggesting I appreciated that especially when you're running background. You have so much wisdom to give. Oh, man Well, so and that was about nine months ago for me and now here we are in Chicago running and Anyway, big shout out to all of you actually I'm gonna put you on the spot All right, you can think for a second about the question of the day Okay, what you want to ask and making videos about it might get in a wedding here. That's okay. I think it's a photo shoot. Oh We'll just hit the white post okay, sorry. All right, and we're back. Yeah. All right. We're gonna be in a photo shoot later for that dress My question today is for those of you guys who are thinking about it. What's stopping you? Go ahead and get started. You don't have to even have a running channel You can do family vlog and vlog about what you know Yeah, if you've been thinking about it, you've been watching Seth and I and you've been thinking about starting channel What's happening? Yeah, I think it's not really a question. It's more of a challenge. No, I love it. I love it and so anyway Gofuzi's just showing me the lakefront here. It's amazing and What is your I guess I have one question. Okay, what's your hope? for Like the next two to three years as far as you're running and combining with with YouTube like what's your vision for Your channel moving forward and you're running. I think for my running like running wise performance wise I'm very happy with the progress. Yeah, I don't know how much farther. He's almost 40 year old likes can go But what I do hope for is to grow the channel have more of a community where people can come to YouTube Hang out in the comments. Yeah in a civil and productive way Yeah in a way that encourages growth the community, but also Encourages charity as well what I'd love to be able to do is be a spokesperson for a charity for a big race at some point like Be like the major not celebrity But kind of the main person in leading the charge in terms of getting Support and awareness out for a cause. I have a couple of causes in mind But you know, I don't want to jinx it. Hopefully we'll get to see that when we get there. That's awesome That's my goal. That's awesome All right, everyone. I got a challenge. Let's break a record Keyword cofoozie you better believe a keyword down in the comments hit it up. Let's see how many comments we can get today Could we break 500 huh? Absolutely, absolutely So all right, man, I appreciate you showing me the lakefront. All right, don't forget Work hard. That's right. See beauty. Love each other. Love each other. There it is See you tomorrow. Actually, I'm not done filming All right, everyone just said goodbye to cofoozie and oh that was amazing It's like we said on the run. We've both been doing YouTube for three years and now we finally get to meet But I wish I had more time to get epic shots with cofoozie and talk we could talk and film all day I could just tell and what you see on What you see on film on YouTube is what you get with cofoozie just genuine happy funny and So anyway, I just love the guy and even though we just met for the first time But after watching someone on YouTube for three years, it's a little surreal Meeting them in person.
