When Nike's #NXR SW Regional kicks off on Saturday, teams will have traveled from all over the region to race. It's likely no one will have come as far as Battle Mountain CO sr Lily Whelan. Latest for @DyeStat: LILY WHELAN'S LONG ROAD TO RECOVERY 📰 tinyurl.com/3rddrv34
Another nice one from @tracksmith about the emotional journey of aiming for a new lofty goal. About teamwork and fear, and fighting the summer heat. tracksmith.com/journal/articl…
Aiming for honesty and would searching Zoë Rom scales the mountain top with this personal exploration of what social media demands from women. patreon.com/posts/my-body-…
kieselaymon.com/blog/2015/1/11… Such a welcome reminder from @KieseLaymon
Appreciated this piece on who gets to feel like a “real runner” and why, including the ego check that results from attending @wser by @cyu888 tinyletter.com/christineyu/le…
A nice reflection from Jenn Hughes on @ultrasignup about her winding road to Hardrock this summer news.ultrasignup.com/hardrock-heart…
Hundred milers are incredibly hard, even when you do well. This recap by @gazzellie offers a peak at these conflicting experiences and emotions.
“The Rule of 10 is to be used whenever one needs a swift kick in the fanny to get out the door.” Helpful stuff told humorously by @NickTriolo trailrunnermag.com/training/menta…
I poured my heart into this one, I hope you all enjoy news.ultrasignup.com/the-endurance-…
The idea of outlasting the shadow of expectation looms large in this piece. Happy for any athlete that sustains under such pressure, whether external or self imposed.

If you’ve ran or crewed a trail race, you’ve most likely seen runners in the midst of some very vulnerable moments, if not been in one yourself. This week, @emilysweats explores the uniquely intimate side of pacing runners through ultramarathons. hubs.ly/Q01d9hVY0
A remarkable piece describing the @bostonmarathon with poetic outside perspective. Please enjoy this reflection by @NickTriolo
If you're preparing for the #BostonMarathon you'll enjoy this gem of a story by Brian Maxwell from 1977. Brian originally typed it out for his coach. Brian's family agreed to let me share it. I won't spoil it for you, but he had an incredible day... bromka.medium.com/brian-maxwells…
With 10 days to go till @bostonmarathon more people have been asking me for advice. I wrote this a few years ago but it’s still my best expression of how to approach the Boston race weekend. Most of all: stay in the moment and enjoy it! bromka.medium.com/shipping-up-to…
A very thoughtful and experienced perspective on youth running motivation, talent, and development from @TheRealMerb in his newsletter @TheLapCount Highly suggested for any young runner (or their support network)
If you’re curious about the backstory to The Speed Project, which started in 2014 as a 340 mile running adventure from LA to Vegas and now has 50+ teams, you may enjoy my piece about the Blue Ribbon team that won in 2019 static1.squarespace.com/static/58819c8…
Next week Jason will truly get his wish, he’ll embark the 320 mile trip from LA to Vegas at 4am Monday morning as part of The Speed Project. The story of his previous team run told in “When Everything Isn’t Enough” tracksmith.com/journal/articl…
