As a parent, instead of asking your kids if they won or lost, ask them if they gave their best effort and if they had fun. The questions you ask your kids help teach them what’s most important.

@DavidDeutschOxf @netcapgirl why does our deathbed self get priority?

Dear New York Times,

I promise you, from the bottom of my heart, that I did not need a breaking news alert that Ryan Seacrest has been named the new host of "Wheel of Fortune."

@mamaZoeCherotch That’s why we call it a build an I right 🤪It’s so hard to let go of wanting to be at peak fitness all the time when it sometimes seems like others stay in too shape all year long. Thank you for sharing.

You can’t be upset with results you don’t get from work you don’t do.

[Steve Magness @stevemagness]

Good results take consistency, not heroic efforts.

A focus on outcomes pushes us towards heroic efforts. The big workout, launch, or sales push. But success is not determined by a great day. It comes from stacking month after month of solid days.

Consistency compounds.

Might be one of the best things I ever read on youth athletic development...this is coming from an Olympic lifting coach Don McCauley.

"I'm not going to spend a lot of time in this book writing about the developmental holes I believe most U.S. athletes have because of improper preparation for high level sports performance most have received. Let me state this. If you are a pre-teen or teenage athlete who competes in four or five sports per year or unending competitive seasons, you are in an abusive situation, not athletics. If you haven't taken or been given time to run through the woods or streets or alleys with your friends, jump up on rocks, jump rope, wrestle anyone that came by, skate backwards, play hop Scotch, bale hay or chop wood, climb trees, jump off a swing for height and distance, play dodge ball, climb over a fence, play Sandlot football and do back flips and cartwheels for fun, you haven't been properly prepared for high competition levels in true power sports." (Don McCauley: Power Trip)

[Jimmy Mackey @thejimmymackey]

I have zero desire for riches.

My only desire is to:

sleep in late, surf a little, meditate mid-day, train whenever I want, and stroll into town to sip wine and eat well with friends.

Call me unambitious, but I don't think money can buy anything better than that.

[McKirdy Trained @McKirdyTrained]

It had been 3 years since @DevoreSydney last ran a PR... and in this season... she's run 4!

Falmouth Road Race
Crim 10 mile
Mag Mile 10k
PDR Half Marathon

All in a span of 6 weeks!

Now we rest before we build for @runSRA_CIM

[Sydney Devore @DevoreSydney]

@McKirdyTrained @usatf Why don’t they just use an existing race like Houston? It seems like a waste of time/money/resources to set up this whole other event.

[McKirdy Trained @McKirdyTrained]

Your (unofficial) results from the Crim 10 mile -

@DevoreSydney runs 55:19 to take the win!

Nearly 3.5 minutes faster than last year's effort and a repeat champion!

[Noah Droddy @IBuiltTheArk]

Shelby's GoFundMe is going to be a no from me, dog.

[Makenzie Jones @makenzie_jones]

In what other sport can 30,000 people (Thirty. Thousand.) compete in an event no matter what their age, gender, location, job, former college athletes or not, amateurs and pros...one level playing field. Need I say more?

[Sydney Devore @DevoreSydney]

One hour of cross training takes as much effort as 3 hours of running and yet I think the ratio goes the other way as far as equivalency goes.

@McKirdyTrained @CbusMarathon @nycmarathon 🔥🔥🔥

[Noah Droddy @IBuiltTheArk]

Ok, Albertson hung on way better than I expected and had a great race. BUT Colin MF Bennie was the top-American (as a result of running the best marathon), and deserves the lion’s share of ‘attaboys‘.

[Hal Higdon @higdonmarathon]

Runners often skip a workout because of illness, injury, competing activities or other reasons. If following a program, the temptation is to make up missed miles. Alas, the practice of adding miles to future workouts causes more problems than it solves. #RunWithHal #MisseedMiles

[Kyle Merber⏱️ @TheRealMerb]

When an athlete gives an excuse during a post-race interview then they started with that in their head. It’s hard to run well when you’re already prepared to explain why you didn’t

[Jordan Hasay @JordanHasay]

2 weeks out. Time to start watching multiple times per day one of the best pieces of announcing history… “we’re gonna need some oxygen” 😂🙏 🇺🇸 @bostonmarathon @cbsboston @runmeb @ToniReavis American Meb Keflezighi Wins Boston Marathon https://t.co/DHaKO2Hgdd via @YouTube
