- On the day before I turned 50 I decided it was finally time to commerorate my Fastest Known Time (running speed record) on the 343 mile Sheltowee Trace Trail in Kenucky and Tennessee with a tattoo of the trail blaze (directional markings on trees). I took my cousin Harry and my buddy the Colonel for emotional support and some good laughs!
Awesome tattoo!
Congratulations again Jason! Tattoo looks great as well! Definitely needed the diamond. -dave
Thanks Dave! Hope to add a few things around the outside still.
Great tat Jason! Definitely an appropriate one considering what you have accomplished!
Thanks Chris! I hope to add to it but not sure my wife will approve 🥲
Looks good! I would say this was a good reason to get a tattoo and it's tasteful.👍 Congratulations again on your accomplishments down there, truly inspiring stuff.
Thanks for sharing this, very entertaining!😂
The Colonel certainly adds to the entertainment value of a silly video like this! Thanks again!
Looks good man! Perfect tattoo for your accomplishments!
Hope to add a few things to it soon but not sure the wife will like it so probably need to let this one sink in for a while, lol. Thanks AJ!
Looks great! Well deserved!
Thanks Tom! Colonel was right, now I want another!
The Colonel should’ve gotten a tattoo also 🤣🤣
What should he get and where should he get it? 😁
Nice! Good choice of tattoo for you bro
Thanks! Hoping to add to it around the outside, FKT on one corner and the years and times around the other three.
Hahaha the first thing Mister said was you need a haircut! I was actually raised in South Bend so we were over in Elkhart from time to time! Didn't know there was an RV Hall of Fame over there though. The only tattoo I think I would consider getting is a tattoo for my wedding ring! I couldn't lose it then! It looks great sir! Have you decided whether or not you are going to add the text around it yet?
Ha! Yeah, I am need of a haircut soon! I would like to get some text around the outside of the diamond..."FKT" on one corner and then the years and times on the other three corners. Thanks guys!
Hey Jason how are you? That's is an awesome Tattoo you got man. I want to get a tattoo of my Truck 🚛 & kayak but my wife want me to get a tattoo of my extremely wide feet 🦶 i have. I said Why? I told my wife you can get a tattoo of my feet 🦶 & i will get my tattoo of my Truck 🚛 & kayak. I didn't see anything wrong with your toenails especially your big toe. They was having fun making fun of you in front of her. Happy belated birthday to you buddy. Good video buddy thanks you for sharing this.
I'm doing well Mack, thanks for asking, good to hear from you!
Perfect way to commemorate your accomplishment! Can you give a shoutout to the shop you used? if not, I understand.
Thanks! Flesh to Fantasy in Bellefontaine.
@@jasonwish- that's awesome... if i get a tattoo, i'll go there, but it probably wont happen anytime soon. I'd need something as meaningful as this was for you, and as i haven't conquered all 3 FKTs, I don't feel I deserve a turtle blaze tattoo. Since you just got one, if i did that it would be like two women wearing the same dress to a party.
I took a month to do it fully supported and my "tattoo" is the memories in my mind.
On the other hand, I think I do deserve a sheltowee tattoo because it is the most deliberately difficult thing i've ever done.
I would just feel bad because i'd get it done differently and I'd be the a$$hole who thinks it's better than yours because of whatever minor differences...
also, you did it first, so i can't copy you or everyone will think i'm a copycat.
so, I need to actually study the FKT website and find my own trail that I can make a trilogy. Maybe i can do it bicycling or kayaking or hiking. I don't know if those are all options, but those are the things that I do, and I'm sure there's a low-traveled trail that I can just "own" until people catch on..
but you have the Sheltowee.. that's yours, and probably gonna be for a long time!
This is the kind of stuff that makes you an influential person and now i hope you aren't gonna influence my grown self to get a tattoo like some heathen who just tries to be cool.
@@deathclock9 I'm sure you'll find a great trail to try this on, and as far as the ST tattoo, if that is something that is meaningful to you I would go for it! I reached out to numerous ST thru hikers who had turtle tatoos with the diamond and I just used what I liked from each of theirs...they were all slightly different and so was mine. I still hope to add around the outside of mine, with FKT in on corner and my three dates/times on the other three corners. Anyways, you do you and whatever your comfortable with, I doubt anyone will judge you...I certainly won't!
I thinking you had tattoos from your younger days. PS it colonial turned to get some ink Jason lol.
My first time. Now it’s colonels turn!
Is it upside down? 😂
lol, what?? The head is on top and tail is on bottom just like the trail blaze, how could that be upside down?
Gotcha
