    Matt I’ve said it a thousand times, you should start a business as a running tour guide. You do a really good job at all the extra info and fun places to see.

    • @its_Matt_B_
      @its_Matt_B_  2 года назад +1

      That’s kind of you to say, Mark! I’ll sure continue to make these vids when I visit places with a lot of interesting sights, but Lakewood Ranch doesn’t have much in the way of history/interesting places, so I’d have to move somewhere else to start a business (or charge ridiculous prices so I can fly all over)! 🤔 I like the ridiculous prices idea! 😂

    Hi Matt, I'm back after dealing with a anterior shin splint injury after my sub 3 marathon attempt, I got it with 3 mins to spare but my shin didn't see it that way after I stopped but now I'm building the running back up after near and month of cycling and swimming. Your video is great timing, I'm racing the Barcelona Marathon this March for my first official marathon and for my 18 birthday so hopefully I'll be able to pick out some of the sights you talked about while running through the city.

      My Spanish is terrible, despite taking it in college. I can't really say how much it's needed because my wife is fluent! However, it is a huge tourist destination, so I'm quite sure you'd be fine not knowing a word of Spanish!
