This is why Josh has been my agent for over a decade. He always has his athletes and athletes in general top of mind. Hope this situation can be righted for those 3 ladies. Give prize money to top 3 and same prize $/World spots to Jess, Emma Grace and Ednah. Tough spot for all❤️

Our agency had the second and third-place finishers at the USATF Half Marathon Championships yesterday, Carrie Ellwood and Annie Rodenfels, respectively. I am gutted for the athletes impacted by the on-course mishap and for the Atlanta Track Club team. I also understand the precarious position this places USATF, given their published selection criteria for the World Athletics Road Running Championships in Copenhagen this September. The USATF selection procedures state that the top three finishers at the National Championships will earn automatic selection to the World Championships, with one additional at-large spot going to the top-ranked athlete in the World Athletics global rankings (full criteria below). Should any athlete on the podium decline, USATF will then fill those spots by order of finish, up to the fifth position. Earlier today, I had conversations with both Carrie and Annie. Both athletes prefer that the rightful team of Jess McClain, Emma Grace Hurley, and Ednah Kurgat be named to the team representing the Stars & Stripes, as it was a foregone conclusion that they had the team spots locked up, given their lead and proximity to the finish. I’ve had conversations with USATF today as well and understand by selecting those three they would be going against their selection criteria, as Jess (ninth), Emma (twelfth), and Ednah (thirteenth) finished outside the top-five designation. There is the spirit of the law and the letter of the law. The spirit of the selection criteria is to send the strongest possible team to the global championships, that spirit should win out here. Doing the right thing matters, and as a former athlete who has been on both sides of lead vehicle snafus—as the beneficiary (New Haven, 2000), and as the punished (Air Force Marathon 13.1, 2011)—I understand what the athletes are going through now. This is an opportunity for USATF to name Jess, Emma, and Ednah to Team USA. Should any of them decline, Carrie and Annie would happily step in, be ready roll, and do our country proud. 🇺🇸 I want to thank USATF for making this such a priority at this time. They're working hard on a solution, and I'm sure we’ll have one in short order. (Photo: Annie and Carrie in a gratuitous post-race doping control shot #CleanSport)

Had the honor of pacing the women’s OTQ standard 2:37 chase at CIM yesterday. Over 70 women in the pack at one point including my @tracksmith STAMATA women’s team and fan favorite @courtdauwalter. What a day it was!

@marathonpedro Cross training can definitely be a great aerobic substitute for mileage especially if running is getting your injured. 2-3 days of elliptical or bike or swim could be an alternate path!

For our youth in the sport: In HS I ran 30 miles/week, 4:58 mile PR. In college ran 50-70 miles/week, 5th at NCAA 10k 33:27. As a pro 80-110 miles, won 3 US titles, 2 world cross teams, had 3 kids, 31:24 for 10k, 2:27 marathon. Patience, good role models, and healthy body image.

@KGCrown Honestly I ate fast food a few times a week, pasta with meat sauce and cheese, quesadillas and turkey avocado sandwiches, burgers, peanut butter and bananas, Jamba Juice smoothies, oatmeal/french toast and eggs for breakfast, ice cream for dessert, Gatorade and bars post run.

Few thoughts for post marathon return to training: usually your 1st few runs you’ll feel remnants of what you felt in the last 10k of your marathon. Let that soreness/tightness guide you in how quickly you can jump back into training. Take a mental break as well as physical one.

To those chasing a dream. People will tell you no, that it’s not realistic, to be reasonable, that there are others far more qualified and talented. They will try to crush your dreams and get you to recalibrate your goals. Those who have given up on their dreams will tell you to do the same—it’s a reflection on them, not you. Work. Don’t listen to the noise. Why not you?
