❝Training is a hopeful act.
We can choose goals that are worthwhile and attainable, albeit challenging, and we can make good choices in pursuit of these goals long-term.

I wrote about the virtue of hope for runners.

When you send your children off to school and wonder how they are doing and whether they are making friends - That's what it feels like to have articles under peer review.

Shaping Character in the Presidential Fitness Test Physical education can be used to develop good habits of thinking, feeling, and acting. However, it is not always (or even usually) the case that we practice the right things.

I wrote about the reinstatement of the Presidential Fitness Test and described how a focus on physical training can shape the character of a nation in good ways (and bad ways).

"Wow, that lady is always running" - I think about a person I only ever see because I am also out running

Don't count out Sifan Hassan, you guys.

Come back to this post when she does something crazy (like stretch her legs out and catch up to win) towards the end.

you're telling me a desk rejected this manuscript

The human condition is this: wanting to write while I’m running and wanting to run while I’m writing.

"Thankfully, running is a sport that, overall, has a constructive impact on character. Many of the traits that support success in distance running, such as the virtues named in this article, are compatible with a flourishing city."

Running has a great deal to do with civility. It supports the flourishing of our community and forms us in ways that can make us better citizens.

Bring your baby to work day?

I am explaining different theories of emotion, and my 5-month-old son is mesmerized.

Go Courtney!

@sabrinablittle.bsky.social examines the importance of celebrating the entire lifecycle of our running, including our inevitable decline.

There is an arbitrary point in a runner’s life when “lifetime miles” switch from being a source of assurance to a cause for concern.

Definitely need an Egg McMuffin tab on there.

47.78!! Unreal performance by Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone to win the 400m at the world championships. And in the rain no less. Marileidy Paulino pushed her all the way to the finish, and took second in 47.98.

They move to 2nd and 3rd on the all-time list. The nearly 40-year-old world record is 47.60.

Really terrible.

Need to check that out. Thanks!

I can’t overstate how much I loathe the Enhanced Games and the fact that running media is covering it and thereby lending legitimacy to the enterprise.

Character matters!

I accidentally signed an email

Beset,

instead of "best," and I was tempted to keep it because it's also true.

Thanks, Nita!

Hey #runchat. Sabrina has some advice.

YouTube video by Centre for Inquiry Canada The Examined Run with Sabrina Little

"Friends, schoolwork, running...You can only choose two." - advice I received in college (and did not take)

I had a great time on the Podcast for Inquiry talking about The Examined Run! Found on your favorite podcast platform and YouTube (link below):

I was the mystery reader at my toddler's preschool this morning.

I thought about bringing in Language, Proof, and Logic or Being and Time for the kiddos. Ultimately, I went with Little Blue Truck.

Congratulations!

Remembering a few years ago when this was my attempted 100K race pace. Now it's an 8-miler. Don't despise the day of small beginnings, I guess! Looking forward to this rebuild back to form.
