@GaTechAlum_IE92 @coachgambetta All I can figure is bad navigation of a storm drain hidden behind a huge flower pot as I came around a corner in semidarkness and came off a curb. First leg ruptured on unexpected landing and 2nd leg gave out on trying to catch myself.

@activedc91 @coachgambetta How can you rupture your quads from running. I’ve never heard of this injury .

It’s now been 1 week and a few hours since my freak injury of complete rupture of both quads running and surgery to repair hours later. They are still alive😊

@stevemagness The best distance runners are those that “sprint” the longest.

There's a whole lot of high school boy sprinters running 11.x in the 100 who's talent is probably better off as middle-distance runner. But they are stuck sprinting because that's considered 'fast' in a lot of non-TX/FL/CA/etc. schools throughout the country.

How much mental illness starts in the schools taking away recess and PE?

The American Mile returns to Maysville June 14. Come be a part of this fun race.

Few people die in nursing homes because they ran 10 miles in the rain

Many are chosen, so few choose, even fewer leave any doubt that they achieved all they could.

Michael Jordan is insanely competitive But he didn't win his 1st championship until his 7th year when Phil Jackson started coaching The Zen balanced out the competitiveness just enough Greatness is balancing contrasts so they don't destroy us. 4 Key Contrasts for greatness:

By the time February gets here college coaches should not be complaining that their teams are soft and won’t play defense. You recruited them and have been coaching them everyday for months now. Maybe you Coach need to check yourself as you are likely part of the problem

I wear a couple different hats in life. This is another 🙂

A 53yo triathlete took 12 weeks off training and his VO2max dropped 10%, the equivalent of 15 years of aging. Then he resumed training, and 12 weeks later his VO2max was 5% *higher* than baseline. A neat case study with interesting muscle biopsy data: outsideonline.com/health/trainin…

Your promises in private messages and phone calls to talk to your supervisors to fix this laziness isn’t working @RumpkeNews Week after week sidewalks in downtown Maysville Ky are blocked by emptied cans. Take the 5-10 seconds to put back right

@jpatc1 @hjluks @coachgambetta I still use that several times a week. #GAIN best educational experience I ever had even though many moments like drinking from fire hydrant.

@hjluks Absolutely. One workout won’t make you- but it CAN break you- @coachgambetta If the workout felt too easy add a little more on next round.

Highly motivated older folks who get the exercise bug often start and go in too hard and too frequently. Injuries can derail the best of intentions and plans. Never let today's workout ruin tomorrow's.

@DrHorwitz @hjluks Other than trunk dipping down into a bit excessive flexion if for an athletic performance move it looks outstanding.

@hjluks Wow.... good luck with your knees, hips, and back.

That’s at least an 8” jump 🤣 #doesnt_matter A controlled landing and a forceful jump. Two key adaptations we need to continue to pursue.
