Before I Won Boston, I Almost Quit Running
IN AN EXCERPT FROM HER UPCOMING MEMOIR, DESIREE LINDEN SHARES THE STORY OF THE PAINFUL YEAR THAT LED UP TO THE BIGGEST WIN OF HER LIFE.
Run/Walk to a Boston Marathon Qualifying Time
FOR SOME MARATHONERS, walking feels like the enemy-a pace to avoid at all costs while trekking to the finish line. But for others, walking isn't a weakness. Instead, it's a strength, a part of the plan, and the ticket to a new, Boston-qualifying PR.
How to Make the Most of Your Prerun Coffee
LACE UP YOUR running shoes. Shake out your muscles. And down a mug of coffee. For some runners (pros included), having a cup of coffee before a run is a non-negotiable part of the routine-a ritual so embedded in the norm that a workout just wouldn't feel right without it.
Spring 2023 Shoe Awards
These shoes took a journey to get to you. As the final days of summer dwindled, we asked brands to show us their best in class. The leaves turned, snow fell, and our training calendars filled. We put more than 100 different models through their paces and considered each for a spot on these pages. After months of running and thousands of miles on the feet of our 280 wear-testers, the 25 here rose to the top. We evaluated them based on how each performed on the roads, trails, tracks, and racecourses with a focus on qualities like cushioning, flexibility, stability, and overall ride. This spring, the winners have arrived. And now you can finally meet them.
Why Same-Size Running Shoes Aren't Always the Same Size

What Everyone's Been Waiting For 2023 XL750 TRANSALP
Honda's Transalp lineage dates back to the late '80s as the XL600V. We saw the motorcycle only briefly in the U.S., and then it disappeared in the great adventure dual-sport extinction event of the early '90s. Although, some aspects have been carried over from the 700V model, like the large dash area and color options (which we'll discuss later), the all-new platform comes with a host of modern features. So, what's the 2023 XL750 Transalp all about, and how will it stack up against the competition? Let's dive in....
