Jacob Gener & the California International Marathon ft. Must Be Nice Collective
In S4Ep23 of the PRP, Adam chops it up with emerging long distance runner, iconically established drip king, uniquely quick-witted humorist and proud Filipino American Jacob Gener who has been preparing for the California International Marathon on Sunday December 8th, 2024. The Must Be Nice Collective, just a bunch of chill guys & some of Jacob’s best buds comprised of Elliot Osoteo, Jeff Vito & Josef Franco join the show to offer their take on all things running, vibe prescribing and what it means to be too drippy in the woods #rainforest
Sit back, relax, grab a snack and let these chill guys regale you with the origin stories of Must Be Nice Collective - a group of like minded individuals that isn’t a run club, likes to take running kinda seriously, takes drip extremely seriously, but doesn’t take themselves too seriously. Learn how their collective ethos, shared culture, mutual interest in movement and individual personalities have all layered together to create a unique and oftentimes hilarious community atmosphere that is infectious to be around. Have fun. Look cool. Laugh. Run kinda hard. Chill back. In that order. It be like that.
Things get vulnerable when the lads reflect on the truly significant role running has started to play in each of their lives. With similar and not-so-long-ago entries into the sport, learn how one ripple in the pond of starting a healthy habit has migrated its way into a passion that has started to become a collective way of life for the squad. Amongst its several benefits, however, perhaps the most significant aspect that has emerged from running is the brotherhood these gentlemen have constructed. Loyal, chill, resolute and always there for each other. A bond that has proven especially significant in the last few months for one member of the collective in particular.
