@JennJackkson Don't switch over to the dark side. You write so wonderfully. Vlogs surely feel more engaging and you see the person's face, but i don't think you'd be able to capture all of what you wrote. I love following your cycling career. It was all the rage at Lappe practice last night!

THREAD: IOC Hypocrisy and moving the road events from Tokyo to Sapporo.
Now that the move is official, lets look at how we got here, ask if the IOC is putting other athletes in danger, and what it all means for #Tokyo2020

[Evan Dunfee @EvanDunfee]

I did a thread. I probably put 20 hours of work into this. I’d really appreciate if you’d share it. I don’t ask for that very often.
O and also read it! (That would be nice)
Also, if disagree I’d love to discuss why.

@Deyeye78 @iaaforg This is Jarmila Kratochvílová, she holds the World Record for Women's 800m race with a time of 1:53.28 set in 1983 as ratified by @iaaforg. Yet the Cobra @caster800m is targeted. Take Jarmila's record then come here with your nonsense. #HandsOffCaster

[CatalystCoaching&SportLab @catalystcoachSL]

@MsMahlengy @iaaforg You may be right. She may win. And then disgraced and abhorrent @iaaforg will set new regs to ban her again. No one should chill. This is not a time to chill.

This week @Louis_Garneau is launching an awareness/education campaign against distracted driving. Great stuff. So many athletes outside on the roads, sidewalks, paths, etc. The facts are alarming. #istandwithgarneau #donttextanddrive

[Louis Garneau @Louis_Garneau]

Distracted driving accounts for approximately 25% of all motor vehicle crash fatalities. #donttextandrive
