This is a perfect example of how none of us understand the pressures that athletes put on themselves. He ran brilliantly, he set an American Record, and earned a Silver medal, but he feels like he let people down. The World is proud of you @_Kingben_
The Opening Ceremonies of the Tokyo Olympics, with 206 countries, has salvaged and celebrated whatever dignity remains in this World after 18-months of viral invasion, fear, ignorance, hatred, and loss.
Thank you Japan.
What makes a champion? New analysis of over 6,000 athletes finds those who got to world-class, had during their youth:
-more multisport than specialized practice
-started their main sport later
-accumulated less practice
-Initially progressed slower than national class peers
What an embarrassing segment. 2 US SPORTS journalists complain about not knowing who some of the athletes are. It’s your job to cover these stories. Both track, swimming and gymnastic trials were on 3 weeks ago on national television!
Happy #NationalIceCreamDay
I want to thank @benandjerrys for having such amazing non-dairy/vegan options in all their great flavors. 🙌

The return to road racing and Cross Country build up is upon us.
Come get fitted!
Rear foot or Heel-strike gait is arguably the most common footstrike pattern in runners.
Yet it gets such a bad press and is often chastised as the cause of many running related issues and something that must be remedied.

Gotta love it. JuVaughn Harrison wins two NCAA titles (Olympic Trials too, but that was after) while Athing Mu is part of - I think - 7 collegiate records this year(?!?) - but not even a mention from @ESPYS. Pathetic.
She was the fastest girl in a generation. Then a broken sports system broke her. Now @runmarycain is rewriting the women's sports rule book w/ @atalantany. Make the time for this one people. #RRP 611 UP✌🏼🌱🏃🏽♀️
