What happens when runner’s high meets mountain high? You get Russian-American adventure runner Michael Langer‘s most recent holiday. No longer able to play football, Michael took up running with a passion and he’s now gone to several countries to fuel his new favorite sport.

These are true vacations, however, as most nights ended with a feast and some wine.
