Major Changes Coming to Northern Arizona Elite The Flagstaff-based pro training group, sponsored by Hoka, is parting ways with eight athletesβ€”and its founder.

Aliphine Tuliamuk, Kellyn Taylor, and Stephanie Bruce helped put Hoka NAZ Elite on the map, and as of January 1, they, and five others, will no longer be part of the team. According to Taylor, "everybody that's old" is being cut (and "old" is >28). More details from @slorgebutler.bsky.social:

β€œI’ve pictured, like, people throwing burritos at me, everything that you could possibly picture. I hope none of that happens, but I don’t know. I just hope it’s not the worst-case scenario that’s in my head. But even if it is, I do feel like I’m prepared to handle that.” –Shelby Houlihan

Valencia is always FAST. πŸ’¨

2024 Boston Marathon champion Sisay Lemma is back after scratching from the Paris Olympics due to injury.

Plus: We'll see how Sebastian Sawe (58:05 half marathon PB) + Daniel Mateiko (58:17 half marathon PB) fare over the full distance.
