Runners’ worlds
Re: “Ultra-marathon man,” June 2022.
I recently participated in a half marathon in Antarctica and got overall second place, first place in USA team. Costco played an important role, from diet and clothing to drinks, medicine, etc.
I hope [my success] can let future runners know more about the half marathon in Antarctica, and how Costco can help [them] achieve their dreams.

Great and inspirational article on Dean Karnazes. I loved his motivational messages, except “There is magic in misery.” No way. I don’t enjoy misery, and there’s nothing magical about it. Try the opposite.
