Coach Ushearnda Stroud joins Sports Life Talk's You Got Next to talk about her incredible journey from player to elite coach!

Fiona English made headlines in 2023 with her open letter to the Boston Marathon, challenging their lack of pregnancy deferral options. Her advocacy, alongside that of other pioneers in women's running, led to the Boston Marathon introducing a policy allowing pregnant and postpartum athletes to defer their entry. Her courage to stand up against longstanding rules, driven by her belief in fairness, is a reminder that no one is too small to make meaningful change. Fiona is also an exceptional athlete. From completing her first marathon in 5:47 to achieving a Boston qualifying time of under 3:30, her journey exemplifies extraordinary dedication and perseverance. Just one year after giving birth, she ran the Boston Marathon in an impressive 3:43. In this conversation, we discuss Fiona's running journey, her fight for fair policies in marathon racing, and the importance of making running more inclusive for women. She also shares insights into balancing motherhood and running, showcasing the resilience and determination required to excel in both.

Episode 353 of The VentureFizz Podcast features Giuseppe Stuto, Co-Founder & Managing Partner of 186 Ventures. Did you know that the venture capital industry originated in Boston back in 1946 with the founding of American Research and Development Corporation (ARDC) which backed Digital Equipment Corporation and saw a 1200X return when the company went public. Since then, Boston has been very fortunate to have a steady stream of VC investors at all stages to foster the local startup ecosystem and one of the newest firms is 186 Ventures. Co-Founded by Giuseppe and Julian Fialkow, 186 Ventures is a pre-seed & seed stage VC firm investing broadly across technology. I kept hearing about the firm, so I was excited to interview Giuseppe for the podcast as they have been out there hustling and have been earning the respect from entrepreneurs and their peers in the VC industry. In this episode of our podcast, we cover: * A discussion around the importance of investor & founder alignment. * How a conference at Stanford changed the trajectory of his career into entrepreneurship. * The full background story of SmakHigh and how they evolved to Fam, the first live group video application for iMessage, including how Jeff Bussgang's book - Mastering the VC Game - helped them raise venture funding from Jeff. * The full story of how the acquisition by DraftKings came to fruition. * The details about 186 Ventures and what they are targeting for investments. * The 4 fundamental parts of a business that matter. * The importance of building a repeatable sales model for not only your go-to-market strategy but also how it factors into raising capital. * Why Boston is the best place to build an AI startup. * And so much more.

The big marathons including Boston and New York are ubiquitous on social media - but do they live up to the hype? We take a different format in our episode today and provide you with a nuanced hot take (as paradoxical as that sounds) on the most popular marathons.  First, we answer a listener's question about taking Tylenol or Advil before a race. Then, we dive into a hot take: are the World Marathon Majors, including the Boston Marathon, overhyped on social media? Discussion points include:  How Boston may have oversaturated running news over the past year Why Boston should keep spots for charity runners Should Boston change their entry process/qualifying standards? Is it too easy for women to qualify for Boston? Why are the World Marathon Majors (New York, Chicago, etc) so special? Why you should embrace your own running journey no matter which races you run References:  PMID: 37075050

One great guiding question is at the heart of a pitch that lands an assignment, or in an article that resonates with readers. Answering this question is usually going to be more compelling for a reader, and often essential for an assigning editor. This episode unpacks the power of answers, plus the exception you want to watch out for (ie, when you want to make sure that the question is explicit). Not sure how to generate guiding questions? Listen for the exercise I recommend to get your understanding up to speed quickly.

By Davy Crockett You can read, listen, or watch Read the full story of Frank Hart in my new book: Frank Hart: The First Black Ultrarunning Star In 1879, just twelve years after the Civil War ended, Frank Hart of Boston, Massachusetts, became the first black running superstar in history, and the most famous black athlete in America. In a sense, he was the Jackie Robinson of the sport of ultrarunning in the 19th century, overcoming racial barriers to compete at the highest level in the world, in the extremely popular spectator sport of ultrarunning/pedestrianism. Frank Hart's full story has never been told before. It is an important story to understand, both for the amazing early inclusiveness of the sport, and to understand the cruel racist challenges he and others faced as they tried to compete with fairness and earn the respect of thousands. He was the first black ultrarunner to compete and win against whites in high-profile, mega-mile races. This biography also presents twenty-three years (1879-1902) of the amazing pedestrian era history as experienced by Hart when ultradistance running was the most popular spectator sport in the country. He competed in at least 110 ultras, including eleven in Madison Square Garden, where he set a world record, running 565 miles in six days in front of tens of thousands of spectators and wagerers.  During his running career, he won the equivalent of $3.5 million in today's value. NOTE: This tale must be viewed through the historic lens of nearly 150 years in the past. It will present news article quotes using the words and labels used in that era, that today are now universally viewed as racist, heartless, and offensive. But by stepping back in time, one can appreciate the courage and determination that Frank Hart experienced in a world that at times tried to work against him. Items in quotations are taken directly from newspaper articles of the era.  Also note, this multi-part series is an abridgement of the book, Frank Hart: The First Black Ultrarunning Star. Frank H. Hart (1856-1908) was believed to have been born in Haiti, in 1856. He said his given name was Fred E. Hichborn, although on several legal documents in the years before he started running, and throughout his life, he stated his name was Frank Hart. He said that his parents were Joseph Hart and Elizabeth (Mallory) Hart. It is likely that the Harts adopted him. “Frank Hart” was not just a stage name. Adult School, West End Boston Hart's family immigrated to the west end of Boston, Massachusetts in 1866, after the Civil War ended, while Hart was a boy of about ten years.  Why Boston? Haiti had been experiencing political turmoil and revolts for several years. The West End of Boston at that time was one of the few areas of the country where blacks were allowed to have a political voice. In the years following the civil war, many blacks from the South migrated to Boston. More than 60% of Boston's black population lived in the West End. It would be the future home of the Museum of African American History. As a young man in Boston, during the 1870s, Hart worked as a grocery clerk, teamster, fireman and did “general jobbing,” developing into a talented athlete, and became an American citizen in 1878. He competed as an amateur in single sculling rowing competitions at Silver Lake in Tewksbury, Massachusetts, where he demonstrated “remarkable staying qualities as an oarsman.” Pedestrianism became popular in black communities. In April 1876, John Briscow called “the colored pedestrian” attempted a 50-hour walk without sleep or rest in a billiard saloon, in Washington D.C. He swelled up and had to quit six hours short. In March 1879, a 25-hour race was conducted in Baltimore, Maryland, for all the "colored pedestrians" in the area. Black pedestrians competing against whites was still a rare occurrence.

SEGMENT 1- WHAT HAS STOOD OUT TO ME IN SPORTS (10 minutes): Topics- 1) Why Boston's Game 4 win proves that this Heat/Celtics series will be a series of dominance. 2) Why the Mavericks urgent Game 4 win, proves that Golden State must win Game 5. SEGMENT 2- SPORTS TALK & MY OPINION (11 minutes): Topics- 1) My NFL Division Highlight Spotlight Series. I will break down the NFC East and why the Eagles are ready to win the division in 2022. FINAL SEGMENT- SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT (5 minutes): WHAT IF: Allen Iverson, Larry Brown and the Philadelphia 76ers had defeated Shaq, Kobe, Phil Jackson and the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2001 NBA Finals?. If that happens, and the 6ers defeat LA, that means the Lakers would have made 3 NBA Finals appearances ( 1) 1999-2000, 2) 2000-2001, & 3) 2001-2002), and won only 2 titles. If that Sixers team beats the Lakers in 2001, does the Lakers front office strongly consider breaking up, or do they actually break up Shaq and Kobe 2 seasons later (after the 2002-2003 season) and one year earlier than they originally did (break up after the 2003-2004 season). Are Shaq and Kobe no more after their Western Conference Semi-Final loss to the Spurs in 2002-2003?. Does Larry Brown never leave the 6ers for the Pistons after winning that NBA Championship in Philadelphia?. Do Brown and A.I. remain together in Philly for the rest of their careers after that title win in 2001? --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jared-dawkins/support
