Would you like to read a phenomenal high school athlete who faced his biggest challenge off the track? Here's my latest long-form article written under my alter ego, Prep Running Nerd.

A 45-foot triple jump on May 22nd.

Paralyzed below the neck seven days later.

Three forbidden promises.
Two rides on a Lear jet.
One amazing journey.

Have you heard about the fall and rise of Emmett Hassenstab?

Many of you know me as Jay, but I live a secret life as Prep Running Nerd where I get to use my writing skills. I guarantee that the article below will be the most inspirational story you hear this week.

[Prep Running Nerd @PrepRunningNerd]

Nearly died as an infant.
4 open-heart surgeries.
A pacemaker.
Asthma in his undersized lung.
Complete faith in God.

The next time you run, will you have as much heart as Noah Lambrecht?

Apolitical post. Been walking daily to rehab an injury, and campaign signs are out. Yesterday I started counting the House race signs:

Kara Eastman - 80
Don Bacon - 0

So I wondered - does this predict the outcome? Washington Post article says no.
