This is the same weekend as NCAA indoors, which is an issue.

But that's also assuming there is an indoor season at all. Given where we are with the pandemic, it seems unlikely we'll be able to have the kind of regular mass gatherings an indoor track season requires. (1/5) https://t.co/xPSraWgUxR

I can’t relate to this tweet more. In college it was class, practice, eat, study, repeat. Lol imagining an official asking me to stay home and skip parties. https://t.co/qufSxszpk5

On September 16th 1975 I ran my 1st Cross-Country Race. There was no chip timing or gps watches. However, the pre race excitement, the smell of fall, the sense of Team and yet the equal importance of each individual remains exactly the same 45 years later. I still feel it today.

Had children at 30 and 31, thought my running career might be over.

I didn't truly believe in myself until I was 34.
I didn't reach my athletic peak until I was 36. Still going🏃♀️
I’ve been down, defeated but never given up.
Be patient. Stay the course. Keep moving forward.
