      These kids are runners and obviously have strong respiratory systems, would probably recover from COVID with moderate symptoms, or even worse, be asymptomatic. I hope running with Nick was worth risking contracting the virus and spreading it to their families who may not be as healthy as they are. I can't imagine the guilt someone would feel watching their parents struggle to walk up the stairs from all of the scar tissue that developed in their lungs from COVID-19 :-) but thats none of my business.

    Nick, I love your content, but please understand that a lot of HS runners watch your channel and want to emulate you. Most states are requiring pretty strict start up guidelines for HS sports requiring masks and social distancing, and when they see this (from and Olympian and someone with a biochemistry degree) it makes coaches jobs that much harder. Even if you don't believe in the severity of the virus, please do better at setting an example for your subscribers.

    Nick, love your channel, but come on man. This is so irresponsible! You’re shaking hands, encouraging people to drive cross country, and cramming everyone on the starting line. As a role model to thousands of children around the globe, wear. a. mask! Show them how to be a leader and lead by example. We are still in the middle of a global pandemic with no end in sight. I challenge you to think of creative ways to engage your fans while social distancing (i.e. encourage your fans to do a virtual 5k next week and screen shot their times). Please, please don’t be a part of the problem!
