It was a nine-month project that spanned well over 200 pages of web content, but it was also a labor of love. I am also glad to be finished.
Behold the new DC Road Runners website.

The webmaster's master has told him that there is no more being the webmaster today.
I think "snowcrete" is my least favorite portmanteau. I'm not even sure that it qualifies as a portmanteau. Regardless, it doesn't come anywhere near "snowmenclature." @joefru.bsky.social
I'm thrilled to be helping DC Road Runners bring this event back to Arlington. Thanks for the plug, @arlnow.bsky.social

Look at these trainees, ready to take on the ice and snow. There are still spots in the DC Road Runners Spring 2026 Training Programs. Join us!

Hit a 5K in New Jersey yesterday with my in-laws. It was fun!
We remixed the event, and we pulled it off. The results are up! On behalf of DC Road Runners, thank you to everyone who helped make this event happen.

The morning was fun?
We're back! With just a few minor tweaks. Come run with us!

First 14-mile run since April 21, 2018, back before all of the cartilage surgeries. It has been too long, but this felt good.
One final extension for the 2025 National Capital 20 Miler early bird registration rates!

I do say that this is an excellent group of DC Road Runners trainees!

We had a really good group for the first day of DC Road Runners fall marathon training. Come run with us!
They clearly know what they want to be doing. I'm just not into it. That said, I saw them last summer when they toured for this record, and they put together a really fun show with all kinds of video collages and fake infomercials. It was fun.
@brianflota.bsky.social, I don't love the new DIIV record.
Attacks on Chinese Students Could Wreak Havoc on Higher Ed
The Trump administrationβs latest effort to revive its student deportation campaign could drastically curtail the largest population of international students in the country. #HigherEd #EDUSky #AcademicSky bit.ly/45012V1

Here are a bunch of the DC Road Runners spring trainees post-Saturday long run and training seminar. A good way to start the weekend! Thanks, Pacers Running.

βAs always, our work will be shaped by the best scholarship, free of partisanship, to help the American public better understand our nationβs history, challenges and trumphs.β
I had this when I was a kid.
This is going to kill many public libraries, especially in rural areas. If you use a public library, you will be impacted. #imls is a dust mote in the federal budget. It also provides things like internet at your local library so people can apply for jobs and kids can do homework.
Looks like Trump forced out the Chair of NEH. For predictably outrageous reasons. Yes, itβs time to worry.
We had to make a minor scheduling adjustment to the 2025 National Capital 20 Miler. Early October is now the time. See you out there!
