@ajoneswilkins I appreciate your thoughts on this. I didn’t fully understand all the drama.

[Brian Lenzkes, MD @BrianLenzkes]

Sticks and stones can break my bones but words make me whine and get all of my friends to attack you on social media then get you cancelled even if you are right in the end.

(I think that is how it goes, but I can't remember)😉

Breaking News: Sunnyvale DPS receives grant to add police cat to force. Cat with a badge will be fully trained in Claw Enforcement with a specialty in catnip detection. Not an #AprilFoolsDay joke.

Today women still only make up 12 percent of wildland firefighters—but initiatives are in place to encourage more into the field https://t.co/8ZJBOF4kaL

If you need meals during this “shelter in place” check out @IceAgeMeals! Way healthier than the supermarket frozen food section and a great way to support small business! #yummy #californialockdown

@UltraRunningMag @wser @paulmnelson @UltraRunningMag has had such a huge impact on my 15 year ultrarunning “career” I just wish we could enter the contest w/o having done a qualifier this year. I’m back to zero...which is the wrong direction! #nevergonnarunWS #justkeepreading

@BillyYang No desire to debate your main issue, but just for clarification, the Bible never mentions Jesus washing feet of prostitutes.

@GUEnergyLabs How can one get samples of different flavors of Gu Roctane drink? Hoping to try them out before ordering 10pack. #planning2019 #UltraRunning

?!?!? @dymmel

You may already know this
but
I’m telling you anyway...
The Ballad of Buster Scruggs
is the best movie of the year.
Hats off to the Coens for throwing away Hollywood narratives and recipes.

[Joel Osteen @JoelOsteen]

It would be so much easier if God would give us specifics, but that wouldn’t take any faith. Can you endure the silence of not knowing everything? Will you take that step of faith even though you’re not sure how it’s going to work out?

[Kristen Dymmel @iultramom]

Yep, that was me 😢 #sosad #startingover

[Craig Thornley @lord_balls]

I've had several questions about the one-time bye. It's not retroactive. 2019 is the first year you can use it. You can skip the 2019 lottery for any reason. You must qualify and register for the 2020 lottery to maintain your ticket counts.

[Kristen Dymmel @iultramom]

@GSNorCalCampBus Thanks for the update. Any chance we can get a time estimate?

[Kristen Dymmel @iultramom]

@ameliaboone It is SO annoying. I always ask myself “why?”, I’m not even fast so why bother racing me? Do men feel challenged by a female?

[Kristen Dymmel @iultramom]

@gobroncobilly You inspire us to never give up! Way to keep pushing and win it!

[Kristen Dymmel @iultramom]

Sometimes I wish @LeTour rules weren’t as they are so we could continue to cheer on @MarkCavendish. Thanks for always making the Tour fun to watch!

[Kristen Dymmel @iultramom]

Interesting question. Never thought about that issue. I like the idea of going it alone...but I do fall asleep during the long nights 😉 https://t.co/ewwLkP1EoK

[Karl Meltzer @Speedgoatkarl]

such a bummer to see faster runners using pacers @wser . Why in the US do we use pacers and in Europe they don't? #muleboy :-) #speedgoat

[Kristen Dymmel @iultramom]

How’s this for bad luck: 3 years not selected in @wser lottery, incl travel to Auburn for drawing, followed last year by foot surgery and losing all entries...one year BEFORE they institute a bye option to retain tickets. I’m never gonna run this thing 😭😩

[Kristen Dymmel @iultramom]

What?!? Congratulations Vinny, SNY was a better place because of you. Happy Retirement! https://t.co/h48qKm4pS5

[Kristen Dymmel @iultramom]

Do I want to run @wser? Definitely! Do I want to get in because I am a girl? No. #ultrarunning #10yearplan #maybeoneday #genderblind https://t.co/fHpWzkkW5F

[Craig Thornley @lord_balls]

Is this a problem? And should @wser address it? https://t.co/Flvebe5zBU

[Kristen Dymmel @iultramom]

What’s going on in this world where it takes multiple stores to find broccoli but there are about 18 varieties of Oreos readily available? #ispendmydaysgroceryshopping #feedingagamesathlete
