More of my writing about running this year:
- Also for Starting Line 1928, I interviewed Karen (Blair) Troianello. A standout 800-meter runner for WSU, she joined a group of women student-athletes and coaches in a lawsuit against WSU over inadequte support: https://www.startingline1928.com/pioneerstories/karen-blair-troianello
- Lastly, I wrote for Tracksmith about training for a marathon (with a 12 year gap) after a new ADHD diagnosis: https://www.tracksmith.com/journal/article/paying-attention-running-with-a-new-diagnosis

A bit self promotion heading into the new year. I wrote quite a bit about running this year. Here is the list of links:
- For the AEJMC Journal of Magazine Media, I wrote about Runner's World for the prompt "a magazine that made me": https://muse.jhu.edu/article/858297/pdf
- For Starting Line 1928, I had the honor to interview Jacqueline Hansen. If you want a history of women's running, this is an interview that will provide so much context: https://www.startingline1928.com/pioneerstories/jacqueline-hansen

"Learning to read chapter books and tie my black-and-white oxfords was all part of second grade for me. I also learned that when I felt full of energy or unfocused, running a lap around Alpine Elementary would allow me to finish my work in class. Running became a habit: first to ease my thoughts, then as a sport."

I wrote for Tracksmith what it is like training for a marathon with a new diagnosis of ADHD.

Yesterday I saw that @taylorlorenz joined Mastodon; the first "big name" journalist that I've seen doing so. Sooner or later, there will be other "Taylor Lorenz" accounts that pop up here.

Indeed, there is one already that describes her as a "writer for the Atlantic" and is several years old.

How to know if someone on this system is really them? If you have been around enough, you know that this was Twitter's original problem. Indeed ... /2 #commdon
