@SchwabNetwork @TR401 @sam_vadas A little choked up with no tie Ty, lol. Nice reporting and interesting thought about $COIN potentially being acquired. Wouldn’t that be something.

@anishmoonka @TR401 good read if you have some time

Nike spent ten years trying to break the 2-hour marathon. They named a project after it. They built special shoes. They paid the greatest marathoner alive to chase it. Yesterday, a Kenyan runner finally did it in 1:59:30, wearing Adidas. Sabastian Sawe used to be a pacemaker. A pacemaker is the kind of runner you hire to set the speed for the first few miles of a race and then drop out before the finish. In January 2022, Sawe got booked to do exactly that at a half-marathon in Spain. He'd never raced more than three miles in his life. He stayed in for the full 13 and won the whole thing. Adidas signed him not long after. Four years later, he became the first human ever to run an official marathon under 2 hours. Nike, meanwhile, started this whole project in 2016 with a public goal called "Breaking2." They paid for the shoes, the pacemakers, the science labs, and Eliud Kipchoge himself. Kipchoge ran 1:59:40 in Vienna in 2019, but the event was a closed-course exhibition with rotating pacemakers and a pace car projecting a green laser line onto the road. The sport's governing body never recognized it as a real race. It didn't count. Then Nike's running business cratered. Digital sales fell 26% in one quarter. Their share of footwear sold at Dick's Sporting Goods went from 39% to 32% in five months. On Running grew from $330 million to $1.8 billion between 2020 and 2025. Hoka nearly quadrupled. Roger Federer left Nike for On. Nike's board fired the CEO in October 2024. Adidas spent the same period building a better shoe. The new Adizero Adios Pro Evo 3 took three years to develop. It weighs 97 grams, about 3.4 ounces, lighter than a deck of cards. A Wall Street Journal-cited study found that wearing a shoe 3.5 ounces lighter saves a runner around 57 seconds across a marathon. Sawe beat the third-place finisher by 58 seconds. Adidas also did something Nike never did for Kipchoge. They wrote a $50,000 check to the official anti-doping body for track and field, asking it to test Sawe more aggressively than any other runner alive. He got tested 25 times in the two months before last year's Berlin Marathon, and Adidas signed up to fund this for the length of his contract. The logic: the moment Sawe ran a marathon this fast, the world was going to ask if he cheated, especially after his countrywoman Ruth Chepngetich got a 3-year doping ban in 2025. Adidas got out ahead of it. The shoe retails at $500 and is barely available. Adidas's Adizero shoes won half of all major marathon races in 2024. Yesterday in London, four of the top five finishers wore the same Adidas shoe. Yomif Kejelcha crossed the line 11 seconds after Sawe and also broke 2 hours. The top three runners all beat the previous world record. Nike's only response was an Instagram post. Three sentences long: "The clock has been reset. There is no finish line." That was their entire public reaction to losing a 10-year moonshot to their biggest rival.

@SageAmenti @BlackMediaHub Speak on it

Many of the early Black pioneers of American cinema have been criticized for being stereotypes or sell-outs without knowing the full stories of their struggles against the constraining reins of racism and segregation. Hattie McDaniel was criticized for the roles she played as if she had a choice of roles offered to a Black woman in the pre-1950s. Many of those early pioneers risked their lives to advocate for the rights of people like themselves during a time when racial violence, including lynching, was rampant. The writers, actors, musicians, and entertainers of the segregation era were extradionary human beings. Supremely talented, but confined by limitations of their time. In addition to talent, they had courage. They did what they had to do to open the door to what we have now. We don't appreciate them enough.

Bette Davis with Hattie McDaniel. Davis was the only white member of McDaniel’s troupe of performers to perform for black servicemen during WWII. McDaniel was the Chairman of the Negro Division of the Hollywood Victory Committee. She formed the troupe. At a time when segregation was still deeply entrenched in American society, Hattie McDaniel used her influence to support Black troops serving overseas and at home. As Chairman of the Negro Division of the Hollywood Victory Committee, she organized performances specifically for Black servicemen—who were often excluded from mainstream USO shows. McDaniel formed a troupe of performers dedicated to entertaining Black soldiers, bringing music, comedy, and a sense of home to those serving under difficult conditions. These performances were not just about entertainment—they were about recognition, dignity, and morale for troops who were fighting for a country that still denied them full equality. Among those who joined her was Bette Davis, who stood out as the only white member of McDaniel’s troupe to perform for Black servicemen. At a time when racial divisions were strictly enforced, Davis’s participation in these performances was a notable break from the norm. Hattie McDaniel, best known for becoming the first Black person to win an Academy Award in 1940, was far more than a Hollywood figure. She was an organizer, a leader, and someone who used her platform to create opportunities and visibility for Black communities during a critical moment in history.
