SHALANE’S. NYC. FINISH. THOUGH. In her own words: F*&# YES. I'm a few days late because this post took me awhile to write but...WOW. I cried for Shalane and for Meb and for the sport and the whole entire amazing day. Tears were all over the place. If you didn’t believe in the awesome power …
TPA >>> BDR: Day Two

It was only my third or fourth group ride with the best …

On Sunday, July 23, 2017, Rapha held their Women’s 100 event, …
