What matters in training for marathoners

New analysis of 100k+ runners

Faster runners:
-Accumulated 3x the volume of slower runners

Over the last 9 weeks or so I lost 6000 followers on my X account and gained almost the exact amount on my BSKY account. A direct migration of users. So far, whenever Elon did something weird my BSKY numbers went up. If the trend continues BSKY will be huge for me 😜

Has our purchasing power dropped to a thirty-year low? That's what the facts clearly say: recent price inflation has pushed the share of our income spent on food to a 30-year high. Or are we misleading ourselves - and doing so with accurate data?

The eyes—or rather, the *pupils*—have it. Ours are round, a cat’s are vertical, those of many grazingunderstand how an animal sees the world, and there’s many more shapes. And there’s a reason for that variety. See (!) this 5-min video: bit.ly/3HyIZbg
