@tim_roozendaal A new pair of carbon shoes will absolutely move the needle

A new pair of carbon racing shoes won’t move the needle. That one session after a tough day—the one you really want to skip—will.

I’m back

@poetwithpace Generationally stupid take

Racing 2 marathons in 2 months is a big ask for anyone. Great performance by Phil today, but how much quicker would he have been today if he had skipped Amsterdam and focused on today at Valencia? As most top coaches would tell us, optimum performance is racing one marathon a year.

Holy based

Just ran a 13:58 5k at 4700 feet on thanksgiving for the meme

@booseILL @RealTheoWold This is false. There are 3 people on the entire BYU cross country roster that are over 23 years old. None of them scored at nationals.

In case you missed it, there's a major scandal going on in NCAA Cross Country. The national championships were last weekend and Oklahoma State won. Of Oklahoma State’s four top finishers: two are from Kenya, one is from Morocco, and one is from Ethiopia. Of the top ten finishers overall, only three are Americans and over half are from Africa. This is happening because colleges are paying recruitment agencies thousands of dollars to recruit top-end talent from overseas. Many of these recruits are older than the average American college recruit and already seasoned veterans on an international circuit. Prior to the championships, BYU's head coach Ed Eyestone raised his voice to criticize coaches who recruit over-developed foreign runners over Americans. The response from Oklahoma State head coach Dave Smith? "Shut up and coach your team." So, what we have here are foreigners taking up scholarships and NIL money that should be going to Americans, dissipating the drive, energy, and ambition of our young people-- and a cascade effect on the business side of the sport that leads to companies profiting off the replacement of Americans. Does that sound like any other recent policy debates to you? 🤔

@davidmellyruns Literally proves Eyestone’s point

Dropping the "shut up and coach" on Friday and the 57-point team title on Saturday is honestly such a flex

I think EVERYONE should listen to @run4okstate Dave Smith last year when asked about NCAA changes: “I worried about the young Dave Smith’s of the world hoping to go to college…I hope that is still available.” Totally conflicting answers but both worried about himself. Got it.

All of the art by Zohran!™‘s “artist wife” — drawings of children, old women, men, even vases — are literally just self portraits of her own face Incredibly powerful self regard

@paraschopra 1:37 for 10k with 167 HR see a doctor man

Can’t fucking believe it - I finished my first 10k run! 🎉🏃 Slept at 9pm, woke up at 4:30am, ran 1.5 hours nonstop - you can just do things!

“There is no evidence of widespread child sacrifice among First Nations” Bro they literally made paintings of themselves doing it????

@stavvybaby Genuinely one of the most dysgenic people I’ve ever seen

I’m only supporting candidates that billionaires are desperately trying to stop. Here’s to more grassroots campaigns across the country, powered by working class people and not ultra rich donors. Don’t fall for culture war bullshit, we can have a better world! VOTE ZOHRAN!!

@mehdirhasan You habitually using a word incorrectly doesn’t make it correct

Yes it is. I, like most brown people, literally call all of my father and mother’s cousins my aunts and uncles. You know nothing about this topic.

@brady_h … and they don’t care. Something drastic has to be done because it is destroying the integrity of the sport

@brady_h new cases out of Kenya. There are videos of WADA agents showing up to Kenyan tracks and the athletes literally hopping fences, running away to avoid testing. Now we have hundreds of such athletes in the NCAA, and shameless coaches tacitly admit that their athletes are doping…

Is pro running cooked?

@fkerley99 Stolen valor

I did like 100 miles last week

“This country isn’t having enough kids, why don’t they just completely replace their country with other countries!”

@AdamKinzinger This is the 2016 map btw lmao

Election map by population. Save this for next time people post the one where land is voting
