We’re cooked.
1/ @serenawilliams is our newest ambassador at @Ro. She’s sharing her weight loss story to inspire others. She has more willpower than most people on the planet and is the perfect example that weight is not just a matter of “diet and exercise”.
It's ok, @MurpheyClassic and @sound_running events July 12, run by experienced orgs with sensible fiscal understanding, are still happening w/ @usatf support. Let's hope this is a valuable lesson moving forward, no need to reinvent the wheel, we just need to improve what we have!

New study where we investigate whether 1) ‘super shoes’ work for recreat. runners, and 2) why some runners benefit more
1. Super shoes improved RE by 2–4%
2. Comfort, anthropometrics, muscle architecture & running style didn't explain who benefited most

Hey Memphis sport media, the @MurpheyClassic is hosting Olympian Kyree King tomorrow as a speaker at the @MSCIAAfever metro track camp from 9am to 12pm at Halle stadium. Kyree is ranked top 10 in the world in the 200m and is a Paris Olympian.

Great study by @KimHebertLosier!
Running in a painted super shoe labeled “knock off” and in an intact one to tease out placebo effect.
Differences in perceptual DVs but not in objective measures (RE + biomech) rejecting the placebo hypo.
Nicely done!

Desmond Bane on the City of Memphis and the Grizzlies :
“I love my city… I love our organization. If people step foot in the city and in the organization, I think they would understand the reason why so many of us love it and appreciate it.”

Pet peeve: people replying to an email not using your name included in your signature.
Some people go by their middle name, nickname, shortened name but the email software often auto uses government name.
I just told you my name when I signed off, why use a different one?
For academics who have been in leadership roles and are looking for a new challenge, this position may be right for you!
