[Mike Donatelli @mikeddonatelli]

You don’t run an ultra because it’s good for your body

You run an ultra because you want a wild experience that gives incredible stories you can share with your friends around a campfire or while tucking your kids into bed

Would not recommend for peak health

Would recommend for peak LIFE

[Steve Magness @stevemagness]

The old model of leadership says: "Break them down to build them up."

It relies on fear, control, and constant pressure.

The new science says: High standards, high support.
If they know you genuinely care, they’ll rise to the standard.

[David Abbott @runliftrunlift]

Can’t ever blame your marathon blow up on “cramping”
It was due to some combination of (lack of) training, pacing, and fueling

[Brady Holmer @Brady_H]

Eating when you're really hungry feels great.

But nothing comes close to quenching the most extreme of thirsts. It's almost a supernatural experience.

[Brady Holmer @Brady_H]

I thought the ‘zone 2’ obsession was insane.

This new fascination with walking is another level.

[Steve Magness @stevemagness]

Many people run too fast on their recovery days. Especially on HS teams

The top kid sets the pace. So those who are motivated & want to be good, latch on to them

The top kid may be recovering. But most of the rest aren't

On recovery days, let kids know it's okay to go slow

David Roche, your 2025 Life Time Leadville Trail 100 Run presented by La Sportiva winner. David broke the record he set just last year, making the new course record at 15:12:30! His finish is 14:04 ahead of last year.

🗣️ “With about 120 to go coming off the curve, I saw everybody right there. I was like, ‘I feel amazing!’ The crowd all stood up and it was super electric. I was like, ‘I have a shot now.’”

Cooper Lutkenhaus, the 16-year-old phenom from Texas, just placed second in the men's 800m at the U.S Championships in 1:42.27 — a U18 world record, a three second personal best, and the fourth fastest time ever run by an American.

He was in 7th place with 150m to go. He stayed calm, executed his race plan, and closed in a blistering 12.48 seconds over the final 100m, surging into second and nearly catching Donavan Brazier at the finish line.

🎧 Cooper joined the CITIUS MAG Podcast to break down his performance, share about his progression in the sport, dive into his training, and lots more.

[Steve Magness @stevemagness]

Why do people do ultramarathons, cold plunges, and silent retreats?

Because we’re tired of going through the motions.

In a world designed to keep us comfortable and distracted...

We crave discomfort with meaning.

Our brain is begging to feel alive.

In the pursuit of comfort, we’ve dulled our ability to feel...

🥺❤️ Ben Askren speaks out for the first time.

He saw all of the support 🎥 @Benaskren

[Steve Magness @stevemagness]

Rule of thumb: You shouldn't listen to anyone's advice on exercise if they regularly use the word cardio.

[Jack Brizendine @JackPBrizendine]

Absolutely fantastic way to continue the exponential growth of the sport. Props to @espn for giving wrestling a spotlight. Going to be a fun watch

[IndianaMat🦍🤼 @IndianaMat]

She's golden, she has etched herself into history! Sarah Hildebrandt wins the OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL at 50kg! She makes history and is the first Hoosier to win an Olympic gold medal in wrestling.

Such an amazing accomplishment for the girl from Granger.

It was a GREAT day volunteering at the Muncie Iron Man today!

LETS GO!!!!!!!!

[Steve Magness @stevemagness]

I tell anyone who says "I hate running/jogging" that they are going too fast

Be able to have a full conversation. If that requires walking, then that's where you're at.

When people recommend zone 2 training for general population, for most it should mean go on a walk

Jordan Sullivan explains why depriving or limiting an athlete’s intake of water in an effort to make them “tougher” doesn’t ultimately boost performance at all.

How’s is trying to keep athletes and clients healthy misconstrued as “creating fragility”?
