pristine and warm day. Meb was in Arlington today, literally two blocks from where I live so I went to see him speak.  There are not too many genuine heroes anymore in sports. Someone who truly is an inspiration and leads by example. Meb is an amazing guy. He grew up literally dirt poor and his family fled Eritrea to Italy then the U.S. I didn't get a chance to ask him about this clip but here he is after the Olympic Trials marathon last month at the press conference when the other Olympic qualifiers spoke about him : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qRiCzK7vvI

Awesome video, and great share. Meb really is an inspiration- the impression he leaves on people around him is so genuine and warm. Thank you for the link! (And great running, as always!)

He's a good soul for sure.

Good luck tomorrow.
