Cool to see David Ayala in the top ten at #HR100. He holds the distinction of being the *smartest* athlete I ever interviewed. Smart like Good Will Hunting smart. He’s also a hell of a runner and a really nice guy. Check out his CV:

Hell yes. Go Bob!.

I missed @wser this year but watched some of the feed and got the feeling that if Anton and Ann walked thru Foresthill, very few of the spectators/runners/crew would recognize them. Is that a fair assessment?.

RT @BStulberg: One of the hardest but most important practices: realize that you are not the stuff inside your head. You are the awareness….

Finally, some sanity. Now come on, @CIFState do the right thing before you’re forced to.

Serious question: How do you spell the shortened version of the word “casual”?.

This is a simple 80-20 issue. Come on @CIFState.

When the doc asks how bad the pain is, I’ve got a few reference points for the 1-10 scale:. 10: Eight mm kidney stone lodged in my ureter. (URP listeners may recall the episode where I told the whole story. I can’t imagine a pain worse than that.). 9: Testicular torsion left.

4:06 mid. Absurd for Nike to think she could PR by 8s.

The hyperbolic announcing for Breaking 4 is embarrassing. She needs “world class runners to bring her to 4 minutes.” .Go Faith! But come on Nike, settle down.

My prediction for Breaking 4 is 4:03. You?.

“What was the weather like at @BrokenArrowCA this year?”. “Yes.”. (Currently evacuated due to lightning storm and now snow.)

Everyone should be paying attention to the 23k at @BrokenArrowCA on Sunday. Americans, Europeans, and Africans, all duking it out at Palisades Tahoe. Arguably the most competitive trail race of the year.

Is there a US city that has successfully banned (class2 e-bikes from paved and protected run/bike paths? Or if not banned, at least regulated?. (Referring to the bikes that are essentially motorcycles, not pedal assisted.)

RT @ChrisWillx: Don’t fall into the trap of mourning a life you can still live. If you’re the sort of person thats regularly surprised at….

Glad I didn’t have to make that decision.

I'm gonna add "workout routines for F1 pit crews" to one of the most obscure rabbit holes I've gone down.

Another THANK YOU to people who include phonetic pronunciations of their names when registering for races. 🙏.--Your friendly neighborhood race announcer.

Working on a complex issue on Google Sheets and had no idea how to complete it. (I usually wait for my wife to get home. she's the expert.). ChatGPT answered it in "kindergarten terms" in 5 seconds. Incredible.
