Reed Fischer 5TH AT US 10 MILE CHAMPS. 19 second PB during his 5th straight week at 105+ miles (106 miles for this week). Bring on the TCS New York City Marathon. 5 weeks away. ⚒ #huntertrained

Two of the best ever, at every level of their careers, going all out for a very long time. My guess is that most HS runners would be well served to see this and visualizing themselves doing the same. This video has about 100 retweets. Should it have 1000?

Expectations matter. If you're running a marathon and expect it to feel easy at mile 20, you're in for a rude awakening. If you expect it to feel awful, you’ll be prepared to grind; perhaps on a good day you’ll even be pleasantly surprised. This is true for all hard things:

Less than four weeks until Tata Consultancy Services TCS New York City Marathon! I’ve been given early access to the race app & am impressed. Live tracking, course map, race schedule, etc. It’s all there—making it the only app you need for the weekend. Available soon, be sure to grab it! #BeliefRunsNYC #TCSpartner

Pretty pissed that the same “personal item” bag that was just fine on Frontier Airlines 2 days ago is now too big. Had to pay $99 and still had to put it under the seat where it fits just fine. #ripoff

This week I learned from a sleep expert UCLA that if we go to sleep 1-2hrs later than usual we get none (zero) of the normal in-sleep bolus of growth hormone that night, regardless if we sleep in. In other words, keeping regular to-sleep times is as important as sleep duration.

In today’s NYC Half, tinmanelite’s Reed Fischer wore a pink ribbon on his kit in support of his wife, Christine, who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. 🙏 Despite a heavy and emotional last few months of training, he had a strong showing and finished 8th in 1:03:02.

Wow! Among 12-21 year old females in the US, almost 40% are iron deficient. Iron deficiency is associated with increased all-cause mortality... and mental disorders, too. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

Very grateful to Emily Palmer & People for telling our story. Christine has been such an inspiration to so many, perhaps me most of all. I’ll be trying to channel a small fraction of her strength and resilience on the course this weekend.

Update on Reed Fischer, the calf he has been nursing since the World Road Running Championships gave him some trouble and he has dropped from the race (update just provided to me by the elite athlete coordinator). We knew this was a real possibility but he wanted to try. The
