What do you want to see on LetsRun in 2021 or the next 100 days?

Letsrun.com should sponsor a mile race in Colorado to be the first to go sub 4.... and a 1500m race for women in Colorado to go sub 4.

Never mind. Apparently I missed it.

I meant to do this at the start of the year but was on vacation, so I'll tie it in to the inauguration.

Just curious what a vacation is like for a dubya. A vacation from your naps? A vacation from TV?

Feel free to post here or email me directly

wejo@letsrun.com

There are races going on around the country, even if they're just local/regional with at best sub-elites, like the recent Naples HM. But I watched all 22 minutes of the coverage that was posted on a thread here, and it was kind of interesting. There were potentially interesting stories there. Find smaller races, and cover them. Kind of like Throwback Thursday, but about the present.

I would like to see interviews with elite athletes regarding their training and goals for the future (i.e. this year’s Olympics—fingers crossed).

Some athletes you could try contacting are:

-Mohammed Ahmed

-Athing Mu

-Bryce Hoppel

-Sifan Hassan

Seem like an arbitrary list? That’s because there are so many good runners for you to choose from—and with the position you’ve carved out in the running world, I’m sure many of them would be happy to talk with you over phone, Zoom or email.

Make us proud.

You ask what people want to see and then delete the response. What kind of idiots are moderating this site?

That Jamin gets a salaried position as political commentator. Right now he's doing it for free.

Man, the posters you listed in your initial response often annoy me too, but it shouldn’t be some great mystery to you why the post was deleted. Wejo has stated that posts going after individual posters are liable to deletion. You could have assisted LetsRun in your supposed desire to see less of yourself around here instead of calling the mods idiots. Besides, the man gave you his e-mail.

Ha, okay hotshot, but you sound like an angsty boy. I always call ‘em like I see ‘em, it’s as simple as that.

John Wesley you have staked your ground as a sycophant. This is symptomatic of your obsequious nature. When you grow up these words may resonate with your timid soul.

Eliminate all of the garbage political/non-running threads or at least put them in a different category than the main message board.

Yeah well maybe we should stick to distance running. Your posts are usually welcome then. It is all good. None of this matters anyway.

Fewer ads would be awesome but what I REALLY want is a separate forum for political/COVID/non-running posts. I come here to talk about running. I shouldn’t have to go to the main page on a running message board and peruse dozens of COVID/political threads to search for threads about running. A post that is initially about running that morphs into a political debate is one thing but things like “why I believe COVID conspiracy theory #2,718 because my cousin said it’s true” needs its own damn forum.

Ok I know this is an American site but as an American can you have a little more of a global perspective. I actually really enjoy your podcast but it is soooo American biased. Wouldn't your listeners like to hear the stories of others around the world.

Running is a global sport you have a chance to really broaden your audience with a global perspective.

This sight is a great resource for coaches and athletes and I encourage you to continue in this area.

Good luck! Oh yea Rojo I run 20-25 miles a week at 54 and can still break 20 for 5k stop complaining and get your ass out the door! Wejo you too. If you can walk Aarhus you should be able to run a sub 20 5k hahaha. Good luck!
