i consider myself a lucky man for many many reasons. i’ve got my health, my beautiful family, blah blah blah. but never in my life did i think i would someday have my own theme song. an action figure, yeah (i’m a huge comic book fan). but a theme song… ? no way.
that’s why this is so awesome. a friend of mine has been cranking overtime in his studio to produce “Run Tellman Run”, the theme song for my run across the country. he’s the one singing the chorus and intro. i’m not sure who his collaborator is that’s rapping the verses, but shucks, that guy is the real deal. [sidenote: i don't think the word "shucks" has ever been used to talk about rap. is that allowed?]
if you listen carefully you’ll notice that there’s rhythmic breathing in the background through the whole song. my favorite line is “so feet don’t fail him now, he’s got much land to scape with GPS know-how“. oh yeah, this is going to be in my head for days and days.
have a listen… RunTellmanRun theme song

Dear Tellman
In case those feet are hurting, this message is sent with love and a warm lavender & olive foot massage for you.
Alone and running – in your mind imagine warm, soothing oils being caressed into those tired feet and legs with the aroma of relaxing lavender assaulting your senses to calm and restore you.
If you need the real deal and have someone there, the recipe is 2 tablespoons of best olive oil with 6-10 drops of lavender essential oil, warm gently and massage in (preferably before sleeping – (stick on socks for best effect).
Whatever, wherever, you’re a star – Run, Tellman, run – everyone is SO proud of you and cheering on your great achievement!!.
Dear Tellman
I sent email yesterday, but for unnown reason it returned back
summary: A friend of mine, Dan Kuschell, told me your story, as I don’t know you, as an insperation; I told him I’m honored to know you; and a man put a motto to himself and to the others “Overcome Everything” and wants to run from coast to coast, pare footed, around 3000 miles, to draw attntion of the hard hearts to his noble cause, is a man chosen by Jesus Christ, He will accompay him, strenthen his will and his feet!
Run, dear Tellman, Run .. God bless you !! Our prayings are with you.
Yours Truly,
Fares Elias Al-kaadeh

HI Tellman,
Interestingly, you spend time. And the idea of such a plan you have, it seems that all the other worldly affairs in order. Good luck!
P.S. All of my ideas and efforts are currently aimed at improving the material situation of my family.
Hi Tellmann!
You know I am not an american but I am very respect what you do
for charity and that you know the know-how with naked foot?
I don,t quite understanded it, but have a lot of Luck!
Many Greetings!
Dear Tellman,
Hi this is Fares from Damascus-Syria
Thank you for your DVD “List Pros” ” Comlete Contents of Home Study Course”.
I’ll study every word of it, You Just cut & tailor and I wear.

Great song mate. You’re doing a great thing. Good on you. Hope you enjoy running to this tune!! I’ll be following your progress!
Awesome theme song, Tellman. I am not a rap fan, in fact I despise all that I have heard, but this one I like and could listen to it without complaint. It will make a good running companion for you.
You are taking on quite a challenge with your run and I will keep you in my prayers for continued good health, clean running lanes, conditioned feet, good weather, and unending energy to reach your goal. I do believe it will be much easier to raise the donation goal for the kids than to make the run and I do commend you for your dedication to helping others in need. Run Tellman Run!
TELLMAN HOOK ME UP WITH A FREE WEBSITE THAT IS READY TO GO, I CAN’T AFFORD ALL YOUR VIDEO FEES AND ETC.
I’LL DONATE 80% OF THE INCOME PROFIT TO YOUR CAUSE.
THANK YOU, DAN THE ORPHAN.
Well Dang! The tape finished before the song did! But COOL song!
Bravo to you and the song creators!
Great cause, great song, poor feet, knees, hips, spine, and connecting joints! Did you ever find a run-a-long doctor? Watch out for the fire ants when you hit the Southwest. One wrong step into or near to a fire ant mound will ruin your day!
Still… Bravo to you for your endeavor, and having Your Own Song! I can just imagine what a Tellman Bobble Head character would look like–one of the only long haired bobble heads around! Have someone make a bunch, and sell them enroute for your cause!
absolutely Maaarvelous. A wonderful song and I wouldn’t expect anything less when you know the King of Virgin Records. Many blessings Tellman and SWEET FEET.
AWESOME Theme Song. I am going to link it to my website today, and email all my personal contacts with that link. One day I hope be even a bigger internet geek then you man.

Hi Tellman,
Great theme song for your run! I think most people have no idea of the staggering numbers of homeless teens, the danger they are in, and the implications of that long-term for this country. Thank you for doing something so graphic to raise consciousness and money for this cause.
Wow, arent you scared.
I wish you all the best all the way from Perth in Austrlaia. Be safe and look after those feet. You definetly have the Forest Gump look.
Now who said one person could not make a difference in the world!!!
Abby
That was sweet. I wish you all the luck in your endeavors in life.
That was sweet. May God continue to bless and keep you. You’re doing a real special event.
May the Gods be with you on this fantastic venture, and bring you
through without injury. I really hope you wear shoes mocosins or
something to protect your feet. Many prayeres CJ.

HI Tellman,
I have to comment on your status here about you wearing shoes.I am the opposite. I barely wear any shoes or sneakers unless I have to go to work. I LOVE being in my bare feet, but I don’t know if I could ever run barefooted.
P.S.
what did you think about the dinosaur video John and I made at Walmart. It was actually my idea. I could not resist when I walked by him
Teresa
Tellman! Your awesome dude! Barefoot? You ARE hardcore!
Its cool that you are training with Vibram 5 finger shoes; they rock.
Good luck on your run! I look forward to hearing about your progress and letting my list of know about your fundraising so I can be apart of helping your cause too!
Keep the good news coming and awesome theme song!!!
You rock!

Dear Tillman,
I just thought I’d let you know that I’ve listened to your theme song and I like it a lot! Just know that I’ll be praying for you as you run across the country barefoot! Keep me posted on how it goes.
Dana
Hi Tellman,
After hearing your theme song, I decided to record a video of a karaoke song that I performed here in Keene, NH. Your fundraising efforts for homeless youth should be applauded. You’re a great inspirational model for others to follow!. I’ve posted the video on You Tube and Facebook for you to see. I hope you like it.
Your friend,
John

Hi Tellman!
Although I personally think, that CHARITY is the DISGRACE and SHAME of this world, I wish you quick feet for this incredible adventure.
Being directly connected to the ground barefooted for so many days, will definitely energize you and lift your spirits.
My thoughts will be with you many times.
MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU!!
Kind regards,
Jean Paul AZZURRO
The rapping collaborator sounds like KJ-52…
Wow! I want my own theme song!
You’re a legendary man Tellman
