Growing up in LA, I had no idea so much natural beauty existed outside my back door. Now, as an outdoor filmmaker & REI Co-op Member, I love being a part of a strong community & sharing stories to inspire people to get outside to see what's possible. #REIpartner #BetterIsOutThere

The reason I've been beating this drum so vociferously is because the downside has been so damaging in that we're losing our basic decency and humanity, we may never find our way back. These are doctors, these are scientists. Also: common sense.

Stop shaming people for going outside. The risks are generally low, and the benefits are endless.

When taking precautions, like keeping a safe distance from others and wearing a mask, getting the novel coronavirus is highly unlikely in open air.

The 100 can be a metaphor for what pushes you outside your comfort zone. “Discomfort” doesn’t have to be for everyone. And it’s not that we pursue it per se. It’s just where potential for self-discovery and growth lies. It’s opportunity disguised as pain. /Billy @GUEnergyLabs

Wow, very gutsy race by CJ Albertson. 2:11:43 just seconds off his marathon PR. Thanks for the excitement CJ. Way to ring in your born day! #BostonMarathon

Whoa. @TomEvansUltra was attacked and mugged at knifepoint on the trails in South Africa. Unfortunately (and understandably) withdrawing from UTCT to return home. Sorry this happened to you Tom…best wishes 🙏🏼

Fun video we made of @des_linden 's MONSTER 26.2 mile (26.1?) workout a couple of weeks ago for @brooksrunning (feat. @JoshCox ). Excited to have front row seats for this 🔥
