Wake up to incredible results from Valencia! 57:32?!?! Kibiwott Kandie destroys Geoffrey’s 58:01 half marathon world record from 2019...but three others too?! Jacob Kiplimo (2nd, 57:37); Rhonex Kipruto (3rd, 57:49) & Alexander Mutiso (57:59)! Just wild.  @ChrisChavez  

@jgault13 INSANITY IN VALENCIA. Kenya's Kibiwott Kandie runs 57:32 to destroy Geoffrey Kamworor's 58:01 half marathon world record as the TOP FOUR MEN all run under the previous WR. Jacob Kiplimo 57:37 in 2nd, Rhonex Kipruto 57:49 in 3rd (debut), Alexander Mutiso 57:59 in 4th.  

@ChrisChavez A brilliant 2020 campaign for Kenya’s Peres Jepchirchir ends with a 2:17:16 for the 5th fastest marathon of all/time. Half marathon world title in October...now this. Joyciline Jepkosgei was second in 2:18:40. Jordan Hasay finished back in 2:33:51 

@jgault13 Kenya's Peres Jepchirchir concludes her incredible 2020 season with a win at the Valencia Marathon in a huge pb of 2:17:16 to move to #5 all-time. Earlier this year, she won the World Half Marathon title and twice set the women's-only half marathon world record.  

@jgault13 More history in Valencia: Evans Chebet outkicks Lawrence Cherono to win, 2:03:00 to 2:03:04. Chebet now 6th all-time, Cherono 7th. Birhanu Legese third in 2:03:16, Amos Kipruto fourth in 2:03:33. Making this the first race in history with four men under 2:04:00.  

@letsrundotcom 12 Olympic standards, four all-time US top-10 marks, two PBs in 24 hours for Sam Atkin, and one Australian record for Pat Tiernan. The 10k track meets did not disappoint.  

@usatf This morning @Em_Sisson ran a personal best 67:26 in fifth place at the Valencia Half Marathon, falling just 1 second shy of the American record!  

@PrepCalTrack Newbury Park runners dominated the first five spots! Christian Simone was third in 14:46.79, Nicholas Goldstein fourth in 14:47.11 and Leo Young fifth in 14:49.99 (#8 sophomore in state history/#19 sophomore in U.S. history! Yes, all five Newbury Park runners go sub-14:50! #OhMY!   

This Vlog is documenting my journey from my first injury in 40 plus years of Endurance Training. On March 9th 2020, I was out walking in the pre dawn hours like I have done for decades... Then I ended up on my back and my left leg was killing me. John's Burger washed their cooking grease on to the sidewalk and I fell like they do in the movies on the banana peel.  For the next 6 weeks, I could barely walk around the house and then when I could walk, I could barely breathe. On April 25th 2020, I was admitted to the hospital for the first time in my life (I was born in 1963) and three cardiologist told me I had Congestive Heart Failure.  This is my journey back to Endurance Sports...
