What I can't wrap my head around with Nuguse: • On the bowling team to burnish his college applications • Off no training, runs a 5:30 mile in gym to be first in line at McDonald's for lunch • HS coach had to convince him to join track • Now he's an Olympic bronze medalist

Sydney McLaughlin said she goes off Instagram for 2-3 weeks before every competition because it gives her anxiety. She doesn’t miss it. Feels so much better when she’s off it. (And if she’s a world record holder, how does your average teen feel?)

Had hoped women's 10K/men's 5K might be free for spectators. Maybe local high school xc teams could get in and fill the stands. Nope. Need a ticket. When I looked for tix for Monday night, cheapest ones were $114. Out of reach for families. Missed opportunity to grow the sport.

One last photo from this morning, @SaraHall3 thanking pacer Eric Finan of Eugene. Even in Eugene it is tough to find a dude who can run 1:08 on no notice. Eric got the call 2 weeks ago and hadn’t been doing any workouts. He put in 5x1 mile last week, 6x1 this week and nailed it.

Applications for the Boston Marathon were down about 4,000 runners (14.7 percent) from pre-pandemic levels. Everyone gets in—no cutoff—for the second year in a row. Runners are taking their sweet time getting back to road racing. Even Boston is not immune.

For elite runners, there's no standard formula where you run X time and get Y dollars. Money flows to the fast, sure, but it also helps to be young and to want to train in a group. Thanks to those who shared their finances with me for this piece.

TV coverage of the Chicago Marathon was frustrating at the end. No running clock on the screen, so couldn't tell how close Chepngetich was to the WR. Same for Sisson with AR. The angle is from the side, so you can't see clock at finish. Commentators didn’t add meaningful info.
