Marathon weekend in Chicago is what I mark as my running anniversary. A chance visit turned into a decade running and I don't even remember what life was like before it, although I do know it was worse. Good luck to all the runners today!

Happy Saturday! Got the easy run in on the treadmill while watching College Game day, next off to enjoy a beautiful fall day in Ohio with football and the kids activities. I'm hitting on these things in my next newsletter Monday, along with all the other running news from around Stark County.

If you're an individual trying to create something, but constantly getting bombarded with messaging that you should become a nu-media company this will hit you in the feels. A good lesson from some great writers who make the Internet much less shitty every time they publish

Maybe! I wouldn't be surprised if all of a sudden everyone tries to get in the game. More road runners are trying trails, it's a wide open market for innovation and design, and if they're willing to spend dollars on sponsorships, it's a good bet.

Kinda bummed about the Stefanski firing. There was some consistency at the head coaching position for the first time in the Browns new era. Had to handle all the distractions and still made playoffs twice.

He's the type of guy that would do it too. And he'd throw for 400 and 3 picks in a 10-7 victory
