Apparently a @runnersworld story I did was named an honorable mention in the latest Best American Sports Writing. If you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go call my mom

Over thirty years, it has been my honor to help recognize so many writers in BASW, particularly in the Notables where I’ve tried to make sure to point out writers of promise. This years’ Notables follow (cont)

Today, the consistently anti-union @HearstMagazines became the latest media company to enact needless, irresponsible, and cruel layoffs of editorial employees. Solidarity with all @hearstunion members impacted.

Minimal sleep, constant calories, and a relentless support crew helped “Candy Mama” shave 13 hours off of the fastest time ever recorded on the 2,190-mile route.

Elle St. Pierre is undoubtedly one to watch at the Olympic Track & Field Trials. But what makes her so darned good? For @runnersworld, here’s my look at the underlying factors, including dairy foods, patience, dad jokes, and—oh yeah—that kick https://t.co/DFXBUTBDJV

“The stream trickling down a rock that they called a waterfall was extremely disappointing.” ⁦@AmIDrewDawson⁩ collects this and other hilarious online whines of people unimpressed with Wisconsin’s glorious (to most of us) state parks. https://t.co/CIhAhaHpKq

📍 Copper Falls State Park: "The darn directions took us to Pierre, SD. This park is in Wisconsin."

📍 Gov. Dodge State Park: “TOO. MUCH. GRASS. GET RID OF IT!!!”

@AmIDrewDawson knocked it out of the park with this one! https://t.co/uPxY0nwkhy

Congratulations to the journalists at Wisconsin Watch for joining together to create a better workplace so that current and future employees can make a career out of serving their community with vital reporting.

[Milwaukee News Guild Ⓜ️ @mkenewsguild]

We stand in strong support of the employees at Wisconsin Watch, a nonprofit investigative news outlet, who announced today that they are unionizing. They produce outstanding investigative journalism and they deserve the protection and representation of a union. Solidarity!

🧵A few weeks ago, I was looking at a document showing how much every town will get in shared revenue.

I did a double-take when I saw Popple River, population 43, was getting a 5070% increase.

So I drove up there to ask what they'll do with it.

They had me at cow-themed running shorts.

Check out this awesome trail running group that really changed the way I think about trail crews and community, especially in an urban setting. (via @trailrunnermag)

Milwaukee runner Bill Hutchinson is a gifted and dogged athlete, a marathoner for years who puts in heavy miles week after week. He also loves taking photos while he's out and about. The two passions have melded in such a charming way. https://t.co/GBmmY2OKfA

Feel like you're running the same, tired route over and over? Does you're training need more fun?

Brittany Charboneau has the solution, and it involves Monopoly, flamingos, little bottles of gin, and so much more.

It's been four years since @HearstUnion organized. That's pre-pandemic.

@Hearst, your employees have asked for reasonable working conditions and benefits. That's it. Enough is enough. Give them a fair contract NOW!

We're seizing the day and showing @Hearst what stop the presses really means! Join us at 1pm ET to walk off the job and rally for a fair contract NOW! Show your support by writing a letter if you can't join IRL: https://t.co/MijHTVxN8w
