Every few weeks, I take a lap around the web (hence the .1) for remarkable people, articles, and threads about running. Enjoy!

I recently wrote a review of the Altra Rivera 3 for Believe in the Run. If you’re new to Altra, the Rivera is a good shoe to start with.

Speaking of shoes, HOKA will be releasing the Rocket X 2 soon. Frankly, the Rocket X felt like a brick, but from what I’ve read, version two shines.

The finish line at yesterday’s Tokyo Marathon reminds me of that 2022 Turkey Trot melee in Troy, New York.

Finally, Cam Levins, who finished fifth at Tokyo in 2:05:36, now has four of the six fastest Canadian marathon times in history.

I hope you have a great day. We’ll talk soon.
