Some fun pics from Wout's Instagram feed.

Can’t confirm or deny but rumour has it the song "Defying Gravity' was written about his hair.

No wonder he looks peeved about that helmet 😅

It's clear we are in a #running boom right now the likes of which we have not seen in a long time! Pre-Pandemic things had been flat or up 1% or so for 10 years! This is completely different. Thank you @d9monti.bsky.social for compiling this!
I did a survey of 600 well-established road races representing over 4.6 millions runners and found that finisher totals were up 17% from 2023 to 2024.

Does distance running make you lose speed?

If you are losing speed to a large degree during training, it's not the long aerobic work that is doing it, it's that your training sucks.

Congrats to miler Johnny Gregorek who announced his retirement today at 33. A clever racer, he was also fast notching PB's of 3:49.98 for the mile and 3:34.35. He's headed for a legal career.

Canada's Malindi Elmore records the fastest time by a Canadian Woman for the #marathon in 2024. Sets herself up well for another World Championship/Olympic Team for next year!
Great result for 🇨🇦’s Malindi Elmore in Valencia 🇪🇸

2:26:05 for 17th.

This is the fastest time by a Canadian woman in 2024, plus it should position her well in the rankings for @WATokyo25 ✅
