Reach out to people and keep in touch. It’s more important now than ever. Instead of social distancing it really should’ve been called physical distancing. It would’ve been a far more accurate directive for millions of people to ignore.

IOC decides that cross country, which World Athletics had been pushing to add to the 2024 Olympics, will not be added in 2024. Format would have been a mixed-gender team relay.



Cross country was last in the Olympics 100 years earlier at the 1924 Olympics -- also in Paris.

If you live north of Georgia, you should be thinking about getting more vitamin D in your diet this time of year — even if you do get out in the sun regularly. http://ow.ly/oDPr50CEDpg

Athletes need a way to silence the race-day aches and pains without risky painkillers.



All-Natural Supplements

Curcumin

Derived from turmeric root, this powder targets a number of inflammatory molecules and enzymes, all of which can contribute to pain

Omega-3 Oils

Omega-3 fatty acids slow down the army of inflammation-causing chemicals in your body, which reduces discomfort and lessens swelling.

Marijuana

Legal cannabis may be useful after competition for the treatment of pain, because of its powerful anti-inflammatory effect, or during training



Mental Tools

Suffer More So You Can Build Tolerance

Stay Mindful, Then Positive



Breathe

“Deep breathing can help alleviate pain sensations, because it helps relax the body and increases blood flow and oxygen to your muscles,”

the Tarahumara runners have been relentlessly mythologized and exoticized since Born to Run. a new film takes a closer look at their true relationship with running and how the legacy of the book has impacted their community.



She regards the barefoot running industry as an insult—an attempt to profit off a misconception that the Tarahumara run with minimalist sandals because of alleged performance benefits, rather than out of necessity.



Running, on the other hand, is essential, though traditional Tarahumara “races” are collaborative efforts.

Kilian Jornet attempted a new record on the track... and it exactly didn’t go well. We caught up with mountain running star while he was recovering from home in Norway. https://www.podiumrunner.com/culture/kilian-jornet-is-mortal/
