The Ultimate Chipotle Showdown: Jamil vs. Kevin

🔥 Jamil Coury vs. Kevin Russ – The Battle for Local Legend! 🔥 In this episode, I catch up with Jamil Coury and Kevin Russ—while they’re literally running back and forth on a 0.22-mile Chipotle Strava segment in Tempe, Arizona! These two endurance athletes have taken on the wildest challenge in sports right now: logging the most segments in January to win free Chipotle for a year. 🏆🌯 Jamil, the founder of Aravaipa Running, and Kevin, a thru-hiker, ultra-endurance athlete, and videographer, are putting in insane mileage—think 70-mile days on the same stretch of pavement—as they battle for the title. I interviewed them remotely while they were mid-run, giving you a raw, live look into their mental and physical grind. 🚀 What’s in this episode? ✔️ The Chipotle Local Legend challenge explained ✔️ Jamil’s daily grind of running + working + parenting ✔️ Kevin’s crazy 261-mile week and strategy to stay ahead ✔️ The friendly but fierce rivalry between these two ultra competitors ✔️ Jamil’s truck getting towed (sacrifices must be made!) ✔️ Their content battle—who’s winning the YouTube war? ✔️ Strategies for the final day and whether a tie is possible 📲 Follow Jamil & Kevin’s journey: Jamil Coury:  @runsteepgethigh  Kevin Russ: https://www.instagram.com/kevinruss/
