![]() The body can be either fragile or resilient, depending on the way you’re treating it.ĭo you have a favorite route in New York now? I have started to see the correlation between people who feel like that, and the people who isolate themselves and don’t put effort into their own wellbeing. One of the first questions I ask them is what their physical output is like, and how much they spend taking care of themselves in that way. I have a lot of people in my industry who come to me for advice when they don’t feel like they are operating at their full potential. Have you imparted that nugget of wisdom to others you work within the food industry? Not to mention I’m usually able to figure out a solution to the problem I’m having. I go for a run and I always end feeling much better. It has been an amazing salve for the anxiety that I feel in this industry that I am in. If I ever feel the need to take a deep breath, I know it’s time for me to go on a run. Some of my best thinking has come from long runs. The practice keeps me grounded, both literally and figuratively. I like the added benefit of staying fit, but the most important part for me is the element of it being a bit of a moving meditation. Running has helped me on the journey to accomplish just that. I decided I was going to take life seriously, and appreciating it for everything that it has to offer. I made a pivotal decision over a decade ago that I was going to be a better person and put aside the stupid shit that I had convinced myself was okay. How long has running been a serious part of your life? We recently caught up with the New York-based restaurateur before his morning run to talk about how the practice has elevated his health, his business, and his relationships. Scores of late-night Manhattan eaters are grateful for that concoction - a sandwich made of two meatballs smashed inside a brioche bun along with a healthy array of toppings. “I came up with the idea for the Meatball Smash sandwich during a run,” he admits. Half of the duo behind of The Meatball Shop, Chernow is no stranger to stumbling onto game-changing epiphanies while pounding the pavement. It was perfect.”Ĭlearly the venture worked, as Seamore’s is now opening the doors to a shiny new Dumbo location, in Brooklyn. On top of that it just sounds like the name of a sweet old man who you’d like to hang with. I wanted to say that people should be eating more well-sourced and sustainable seafood. “I was zoned out in the middle of my route and it just clicked. “I had been struggling with a few ideas,” says Chernow. Michael Chernow was in the middle of run when he came up for the name of his new seafood restaurant concept, Seamore’s.
