A somewhat bewildered reporter, Tahman Bradley, asked Renoe why he was running in terrible weather in a semi clad state.
"Too wet for a shirt," Renoe told the reporter. "I love running in the rain."
Athletic Renoe then happened to casually mention that he was single, leading to a deluge of comments on the television stations Facebook page.
The man dubbed the 'shirtless wonder' by the U.S. media paid a visit to the station's studio today, where he shared his surprise at the reaction of the video interview.
Renoe said that people have been commenting, talking about his looks and asking for a date.
"It's really been crazy.
"I have about 900 friend requests (on Facebook) right now," he laughed.
