Check out the actual print edition of iRunNation! It's a keeper! Much of the content devoted to women's running! Great work by Sabrina Young and Benjamin Kaplan #running

People on foot are the indicator species of urban vitality and prosperity. People bring time, money and affectionate attachment to places and other people. Cars are inanimate objects that devour time, money, health and space.

Cities are for people.

The best moments from this year’s Giro d’Italia.

1. Tadej Pogačar giving the bottle to one young fan. It is about small things which can make somebody a memory for the whole life. 🥰 (🎥: eurosportitalia)

Last year out for a bike ride, I was sitting at a red light waiting 4 it to change. York Regional Police Officer pulls up beside me. We watched several cars completely run red light w/ Left Turns after it turned green 4 us. I gave the WTF gesture to the Cop. He shrugged shoulders & drove off! 🤦

Considering running the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon in October? 5K/1/2 Marathon/Full Marathon - Price increase at midnight today! You WANT to do it right? 😀raceroster.com/events/2024/79… cc CanadaRunningSeries #TOwaterfront42k

Think this through a bit: #DougFord is WORRIED about a Pierre Poilievre Gov't in Ottawa. Doug is OK spending $billions of current Liberal Fed. Gov'ts $$ on all manner of things in Ontario. Doug knows Poilievre will CUT a lot of that! So why are the PM/Liberals so bad?

Bill Walton was a BIG fan of cycling, riding his bike along the Tour of California nearly every mile of the route each year.

Often saying, bike riding was the one thing he could really enjoy doing, with his many ankle, knee and back injuries, and surgeries. Ride on, Bill

Just seeing these pictures now. I love how Rory Linkletter has someone else's Hip Number stuck to his right PUMA shoe! 😀

I am grateful that I got a chance to ride and hang out with Bill Walton a couple times. The guy radiated a joy for adventure.

Savannah Sutherland 🇨🇦 gets one step closer to @paris2024, running the Olympic 400m hurdles standard at NCAA East Regionals!

She also broke the Kentucky Athletics track facility record for the event 👊

Insane! First woman to run under 29 minutes.

What a talent! 🤯

When Conservatives talk about “common sense” this is what we get.
Learn from history or be doomed to repeat its failures.

More sobering stuff on #housing from Dr. Mike P. Moffatt 🇨🇦🏅🏅 - the GTA is growing, but many are leaving or giving it a complete pass! I attended a York Region #housing Virtual Seminar 2 weeks ago. They shared similar data for York! Essential Workers enmasse are going elsewhere!
