4. Courtney Frerichs, 2017 WC silver medalist at the steeplechase and AR holder in the steeple, has left #BowermanTC and moved to the East Coast to be coached by Alistair and Amy Hastings Cragg. Kudos to both Courtney and Bowerman on the class that they showed in their parting announcement.

8. The U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials, to be held in Orlando, Flordia on February 3, 2024, should be an amazing event. https://www.usatf.org/events/2024/2024-u-s-olympic-team-trials-%E2%80%94-marathon

9. Thanks for reading my column on NIKE’s current challenges, which I believe were all self-created by ignoring the signs and can be cured with listening to the culture and industry. https://www.runblogrun.com/2023/12/89528.html.

The NIKE Oregon Waffle, a personal pair of the late Steve Prefontaine, is up for auction. Bids close September 15, 2022, by Sotheby’s.

See you tomorrow at 10 AM Central on Wednesday, January 3, 2024.
