The Mayor Of Running Takes His Last Lap
Bart Yasso has punched in at Runner’s World US for 30 years. He started in the post room, rose up to rep RW at expos – some 1 280 of them – and went on to help edit memorable features, judge our annual cover contest, and naturally, test hundreds of shoes. He’s also held the most enviable job on our masthead: Chief Running Officer. In that role, he’s championed thousands of runners at events around the world (he ran Comrades in 2010). As one editor put it, “From Olympic medallist to beginner, anyone who dares to try is an important member of Bart’s running tribe.” On his retirement this month, our mayor, chief, and runner-hero leaves running shoes impossible to fill. Luckily, we’ll always have his good advice. Read it here, in this excerpt from Bart’s newest book, Race Everything.
