Consistency over intensity:

[Steve Magness @stevemagness]

Confidence comes from being good, not great.

Anyone can have the stars align & have a great day. But the confidence from that is fleeting. Confidence comes from consistency. Show up and make your normal pretty darn good.

Focus on raising the floor, not just the ceiling.

@MelansonFinn Anton isn't wrong. My take is he is referring specifically to the ultra world where media, advertisers, and publicity is heavily directed towards 100 milers vs shorter ultras. With a few exceptions, that is where the money is concentrated.

@cmoss23 @MelansonFinn My take is that when he is stating "sport," he is specially discussing the ultra world of running.

Here's what they found:

@maostrap @stclairashley Are you saying that while the Republicans controlled the House & Senate for the first 2 years of Trump's Presidency, they were also spewing hate for him and not doing anything? Want to make sure I'm mad at all the right people for the past 4 years. Republicans & Democrats, right?

@RepMoBrooks Yeah, this guy sure seems like ANTIFA. 🙄 Just stop.

Here’s Mr. Barnett, who goes by “Bigo,” telling the story in his own words

[Boston Marathon @bostonmarathon]

Since 1897, the Boston Marathon has been defined by its year—this is the year we #finishSTRONG.

@ChrisRPhillips @brgridiron @SportsRadio810 He was wearing an Old Spice robe for a reason: That company has agreed to donate $320,000 to the United Way on behalf of rookies from all NFL teams to kick start communities that are facing obstacles in the face of the Coronavirus.
