I'm considering restarting the Emerging Runner weekend video reports (yes they're out there). <br /><br />The US has 20+ million people who consider themselves runners and the running shoe market alone is close to $4 billion. That should be enough incentive for media companies to bring running to television. Perhaps I will need to do that myself. Maybe I should do a Kickstarter page.The Emerging Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09326865074297618379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924908815112206508.post-58570498415497368852013-03-17T23:32:59.848-04:002013-03-17T23:32:59.848-04:00I totally agree!

I love watching the elites because it's really just unbelievable to me that people can make running that fast look so easy. At the same time, I would love to see more of the regular Joes and Janes getting some coverage too. People everyone else can relate to. With marathoning becoming so popular these days, you'd think they'd be able to find a commentator out there with a clue who's interesting...like you! Someone give you the mic!She Is Out Runninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06497517619863017396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924908815112206508.post-58680542172777915732013-03-17T17:46:42.724-04:002013-03-17T17:46:42.724-04:00I'd be happy with an announcer who actually kn...I'd be happy with an announcer who actually knew the runners and could provide back stories and strategies for running the course, etc. I'd like to run the NY Half sometime as well. I've spent many hours running around Central Park and down the West Side Highway bike trail. It would be cool to run that course as a race.

You can surely present it as a way of getting more viewers if it were advertised before hand. I'm sorry I wasn't there. I know some people who were. I'm definitely going to try for next year!ThePetitePacerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14759681534640480507noreply@blogger.com
