I’m happy she was able to make this attempt and have no doubt in the future a woman will go sub 4. On the other side, as someone who grew up in the heart of Nike USA, I have lots of opinions (none of them positive) on why they do what they do.

I noticed the Atreyu Daily Trainer 2 Shoe Review. According to the email I received from Atreyu (as a former purchaser), "Atreyu will be winding down operations by the end of this year." Just in case...you did not know.

Her effort was astounding, and anyone calling it a failure is just wrong.

Women's distance running has become much more popular with runners like Parker Valbe and others showing just how strong and amazing they can be. This event kind of reminded me of the Tennis match between Billie Jean King and Bobbie Riggs, all the hype and kind of a letdown as it wasn't a very good match of athletes to begin with.
