Official What do you want to see on LetsRun during coronavirus shutdown of actual races thread?

Could go with historical races/athletes too. Just rewatched Eliud's WC win last night :)

This gives you a chance to make amends with Nike, Alberto, and Galen.

this is your chance to really do some cool s#&t, since everyone is on letsrun right now

Wejo, how about you release a statement that's actually in support of nationwide public health measures. How about that?

Get a current or former pros to reveal their training schedules.

Greg on the podcast please

For who knows how long there will be very few running events for us to cover.

Most of this site isnt normally running related anyway?

I actually have my first GPS watch and may make an idiots guide to GPS watches.

If you want it to be an idiot's guide to GPS watches, you probably should have Rojo write it. If on the other hand, it is a guide for idiots, maybe send it to Rojo and then film you Skype calling him to explain how to use it.

First of all letsrun should have a "What should I do right now" article on the main page and top listed on the message board.

Young runners need to know that they can spread the virus long before they know they have it.

There is a lot of BS info in some of these Corona virus threads.

Get some useful links up as well.

This is a huge crisis to come. Probably in a couple of weeks it will be a lot worse than in Italy right now.

Once that is in place we can start talking about what to do on letsrun while we are doing the social distancing thing.

Yes. I emailed Wejo about this but he REFUSES to do this.

Maybe an idiotic post of the day award?

Some of us long time lurkers should post their stories of LR in their lives.

Ex. I got kicked off my college team in 2005 after someone posted pics of drinking on the LR boards

I did that too.

WTF??

1. Stop talking about anything political.

2. Stop talking about Covid19 (it's talked about ad nauseam. Yes I am fully aware of its severity).

3. Talk about anything running related.

4. Talk about Jim w.

How about explaining how to post a pic (not from Twitter or Insta.).

Call in radio show where people can call you guys. Open line.

Just going to add that when I was in high school, my last year (2002), there was a teachers strike

for about 3 weeks.

We didn't have to go to class, it was a vacation. Right around this time.

I spent some of the time hanging out with people from my track club/school track team.

We'd play cards and go for runs.

One day we went to the Strathcona high school track and shoveled all of the snow out of lane 1 to do 400's. I think we did a lot of 400's.

If there are things you think we should link to we will consider it but I think I heard today 99% of people are highly aware of Corona. I'm assuming they aren't coming to LRC to read the latest guidelines.

Just see now the federal govt is encouraging no gatherings of more than 10 people for 2 weeks. That is new. I don't think it's necessary to put a link to the latest CDC advice but if that is what people think we need we'd do it.
