– An Instagram comment section controversy on the pronunciation of "Oregon"

– Steve Prefontaine was a short king but a legend and we were all obsessed in high school

– Rachel's deep dive on how the NCAA 10,000m regional races played out and whether we should just call the races after 8K – See the charts here.

+ A spirited discussion on the best Taylor Swift songs to play while on a run
