.@flinderboyd spent time in Ukraine with one of the world's best ultrarunners, who put his career on hold to fight for his country. A running story, yes, but also a story of sacrifice, resilience, and the search for meaning. @Longreads @sundaylongread runnersworld.com/runners-storie…

I've wanted to do this story for years & it was worth the wait for @thats_my_line's next-level take. She demystifies a problem that exists largely bc no talks about it & goes deep on the patriarchy behind body shame. 👀 @longreads #longreads @sundayLR bicycling.com/health-nutriti…

This @runnersworld profile of @ByGollyMolly12 from @rachellevinsf is just so good. Great writing that also doesn't take itself too seriously. Like its subject. I have many favorite parts, but this dig at Michelob really made me LOL. #running #mollyseidel runnersworld.com/women/a4543195…
