Sports Nutrition for XC/Track and Field Athletes: -Eat 25-30g of protein and 50g of carbs within 30-min of waking + H20 to start your day off STRONG and to fuel the day's training! -Fuel up with some carbs and protein every few hours to maintain blood sugar that helps fight fatigue and dips in energy levels. -Always pack snacks and never leave home without your water bottle! -Aim for 100 oz of fluid daily + minerals as needed before, during, and after training. -A fruit and veggie should be on your plate at each meal. Antioxidants help with muscle soreness, recovery, fight off risk of injury, and protect your immune system! -Grab protein and carbs within 30-min of training to help replenish depleted glycogen stores, improve recovery and training adaptations while minimizing muscle protein breakdown. -Avoid high fat, fried and overly processed foods high in kcal but low in nutrients that lead to unstable blood sugar levels as well as evening cravings that can lead to binges and poor sleep! -Aim for 8-9 hours of sleep/night. Put your phone down and do some meditation and visualization before bed. Social media is not more important than your rest and recovery! Especially as a college competitor!

@coachhockley @RodMurrow Haha you have followed me for a while. I usually don’t go there. Definitely a ynger coach and has had success. I love running. I love xc for the team element and the individual part. He has zero respect for the team part and it pissed me off to be frank. That paraphrases my issue

@RodMurrow The problem with this one is the person clearly has the ability to get people to run fast and be very good BUT the attitude was mind blowing. I saw it about 30 mins ago and I’m still shaking my head.

$1200 more to win a hot dog eating contest than to win a USATF Outdoor T&F title. This is how far our sport has fallen with the general sports fan. We draw such little interest/coverage that we can’t generate enough revenue to even beat hot dog eating contest prize money.

I know one top Olympian (Trials winner) whose shoe sponsor contract was $75,000. You clearly have no idea how small the vast majority of pro T&F contracts are. And because of archaic rules, they’re limited in the sponsor logos on uniforms. School teachers, firefighters, and cops make more than many, possibly even the majority, of “pro” T&F athletes.

Cost for a hotel stay = $250-$500 per night Up to $500 or more for flights Reasonable food expenses during the meet and meet prep = $200-300 or more Rental car for the meet and meet prep $80-$200 plus per day Entry fee to compete $30 or more @usatf Wanna know why people aren’t showing up to compete? Because the pay out isn’t as much as the expenses. Most of the people in a championship final aren’t breaking even to compete We have a serious value problem in our sport and USATF leaders need to find ways to put butts in seats and eyes on screens. There are a lot of admins on huge salaries which or the athletes, officials, and coaches get little to nothing for their efforts. We must do better for our sport. We argue about dumb crap all the time that has nothing to do with the bigger issue. There is little difference in prize money between a non world championship year to an Olympic trials year. The more we allow it, the more the people at the top think that this is ok

Thank you, @FreddyLA7. You were the feel-good, timeline-cleansing story of the summer.
Freddy🇩🇪@FreddyLA7

So long, America🫡🇺🇸 49 days ago we landed in the USA to follow our country at the World Cup. We had no idea it would turn into the trip of a lifetime. Thank you to everyone who followed along, and to all the people we met who made this journey even more special. We honestly don’t have the words to express how grateful we are for everything you did for us. This trip exceeded every expectation we had. We came here with an open mind, wanting to experience as much of the country as possible. I still remember telling my friends on the flight to Atlanta that I hoped we’d get to meet a few locals on this trip. Now we’re flying home with friends all across the USA. Before we came, we heard so many stereotypes and warnings about America. People told us about safety concerns, that they might check our social media at the border, and all kinds of other things. None of it matched our experience. This was probably the most welcoming country we’ve ever visited. So if you have the chance to travel, do it. The world isn’t nearly as bad as the media often makes it seem. 99% of people are awesome! I heard this quote somewhere during the World Cup, and I think it sums up our experience perfectly: “If you want to hate the world, watch the news. If you want to love it, travel it.” Thank you, America ❤️🇺🇸

@Predamame I got that. Just clarifying that the vehicle that hit her wasn’t the problem, either, it was its driver.

@Predamame Then let’s have heat/humidity conversions for the distances, which have almost as much effect on performance as altitude in more extreme cases (“poor man’s altitude”). I propose doing away with standards completely and using a pure competition qualifying structure.

I do not agree with getting rid of the altitude conversions. Were they a bit generous? Probably. But I think they should exist to some extent. I think this continues the consolidation that is broadly not good for the sport.

Observations of Josh Kerr’s record mile - Cadence was 190–200 spm, many recreational runners can reach this. What is exceptional are ~30° hip extension, 40°+ ankle plantar flexion, and Remarkably straight & vertical trunk. Textbook mechanics. @runmechanics_in #moveiq

Dang. Whatever some people think of Josh Kerr, the man has stones. "Mackey first mentioned a possible 2026 mile world record attempt to Kerr several years ago. But the final concept, including the “Project 2:22” branding, public buildup, training videos, and London setting, came from Kerr. Kerr created a presentation, pitched it to senior Brooks executives, and explained how much funding he would need. Brooks approved the plan, and thanks to Kerr and Mackey, the rest is history." letsrun.com/news/2026/07/j…

Zach Brandon@MVP_Mindset·
Josh Kerr on his mindset behind breaking the 27-year-old world record in the mile. “My two pacemakers set the tone, the river, they set the stream and all I had to do was sit in that water for as long as I could, follow it and not fight it. I wasn’t on a chase today. I was just flowing with the conditions.” Flow cannot be forced. The harder you try to manufacture it, the more tension and interference you often create. Extraordinary effort and performances don't always need to feel strained. Oftentimes, the best performances happen when you stop trying to make the moment become something and fully cooperate with what the moment is giving you. This captures one of the fundamental paradoxes in performance. You gain control by knowing what not to control. 📹: FloTrack
