A few housekeeping notes before we begin:
I recently launched a new basketball-themed newsletter called Hoopology. The first piece is about Jayson Tatum’s place in the NBA hierarchy. If you enjoyed my basketball writing in the past, I think you’ll like this newsletter. Head on over and subscribe if you’re so inclined.
RP isn’t going anywhere. Once the Boston Marathon is in the books, we’ve got new adventures taking shape and new horizons to explore. This newsletter is about resonating with people who share a common bond through running. We don’t need races to make that connection.
And now, on to this week’s Shakeout where we put a bow on this particular marathon cycle by going inside some numbers. Plus shoutouts to a couple of incredible RPers who took on the Columbia River Gorge last weekend.
