It's clear we are in a #running boom right now the likes of which we have not seen in a long time! Pre-Pandemic things had been flat or up 1% or so for 10 years! This is completely different. Thank you @d9monti.bsky.social for compiling this!

I know many won't think about it this way, but this may actually work out for the better (for Canada) in terms of dealing with #Trump - JT has nothing to lose!

Does distance running make you lose speed?

If you are losing speed to a large degree during training, it's not the long aerobic work that is doing it, it's that your training sucks.
