I write about endurance. Order my new book, The Norwegian Method, or don't: https://tinyurl.com/m7ztb7k3
This is unlike any sports science book you've ever read, because it's much more than a sports science book. I hope you have fun reading about the culture and humans behind the Norwegian method, and learn a bit of sports science along the way.
Marathon world record holder Ruth Chepen'etich has been suspended for doping. Her 2:09:56 run in Chicago last year was 1:56 faster than the previous world record. x.com/aiu_athletics/…
The AIU has provisionally suspended Ruth Chepng'etich (Kenya) for the Presence and Use of a Prohibited Substance (Hydrochlorothiazide). Details here: bit.ly/PRESS-RELEASE-…
This book by Brad Culp not only explains a super hot topic in sports science but does it with high quality prose and narrative. It’s a pleasure to read and I leaned a ton.

Remember that you're probably better at cooking than Gordon Ramsay is at triathlon.
Update: The body we came across this morning was a motorcyclist who veered off road. They didn't find bike for a few hours. If you know someone who rides a motorcycle without a helmet, please call them and tell them they're dumb. No one should see that. x.com/bbculp/status/…
I don't recommend finding a dead body in the middle of a long run. That was not the start to the day. All hit and run drivers should get life sentences, no exceptions.

Finally past both the diaper and jogging stroller phases of parenting. It went by so fast and lasted forever.
