What's (Not) in Your Supplement?
The formal lab analysis is here. Eight brands, detailed statistics, and one extreme outlier. We found a systematic bias toward less energy and carbohydrates in the gels compared to their labels.

This Tyson vs. Paul fight show/coverage is awful, amateur hour announcing. I’ve heard more expertise and insight from weekend business park criterium announcers.
One takeout (not delivery) order of run-of-the-mill chicken fried rice should not cost $14.99.
Congratulations @FaulknerKristen on Olympic Gold! I had the pleasure of interviewing Kristen for @usacycling a while back. Her story and pathway to pro cycling are inspiring for all. usacycling.org/article/krist…
Finally! A dent in the armor of the Earlybird Industrial Complex.

BCAA Supplements: The Prime Emperor(s) Have No Clothes
I have BCAAs as #3 (maybe 4) on my list of useless supplements, but they're like gum on your shoe, thanks to marketing!
Key points:

This is the level of discourse and professionalism in the US House of Representatives? I don’t care what your party affiliation is, this whole episode is a shitshow.

What is the state of antidoping in trail running? If you are an athlete, a race director, a coach or team manager this is a great resource for you: jasonkoop.com/research-essen… Thanks @jasonkoop @StefanaMarie @jimrutenberg @NBTiller for the work!
The Anti-Doping Issue of "Research Essentials for Ultrarunning" is available now as a permanently free resource from Coach @jasonkoop, @NBTiller, @StefanaMarie, and me.

Airline overhead compartments should be eliminated, small backpack and purses under the seat only. Twenty minutes to board and 20 minutes to exit is out of hand. Check all the bags and be done with this.
Dental insurance: You know that perfectly normal cleaning procedure we’ve always covered? Yeah, we don’t do that anymore.
Me: Okay, so what do you cover?
Dental insurance: You can have someone brush and floss for you twice a year, and tell you you’re doing everything wrong.
I wrote profiles of the 5 finalists for @searchforspd for @usacycling. The first profile is up, on Sterling Reneau. He was an NCAA 400m runner, turned bike fit specialist, and now track sprinter!

This is the most phenomenal political add I have ever seen. It doesn’t just apply to North Dakota, it applies to every town, city and State in America.
Make it go viral.
I can’t decide whether to laugh or get annoyed. I don’t feel sorry for Walmart. To save on labor costs, you asked consumers to perform a fundamental task of a retail business. You can’t be too surprised people took advantage.
