An ordinary day in New York City is an extraordinary day just about anywhere else. Just chilling with the one and only G.O.A.T Eliud Kipchoge on a bus tour with @Nike Running and Nike NYC on this glorious Friday of marathon weekend. See you all on the streets and sidewalks of New York City…

What am I doing tonight? Getting these books signed and ready for a special event tomorrow. That’s what. This is about running. This is not about running. #thisisaboutrunning #thisisnotaboutrunning #coachbennett #running #playrunning

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨 There’s a brand new Half Marathon Training Plan in the @nikerunning NRC app! Dozens of new guided runs including a NEW half marathon race day guided run. You asked for a plan with more recovery runs and less speed runs and we listened. That means you’ll get 3 recovery runs, one…

So, what’s the goal of a first run? Glad you asked. Watch the video for the answer. And remember, every starting line crossed is worthy of a celebration… and every finish line is really just a starting line in disguise. #thisisaboutrunning #thisisnotaboutrunning #coachbennett #running…

📣Hey London! Can’t wait to meet so many of you on the sidelines and cheer on so many of you that cross the starting line on Sunday around mile 24/38K near Blackfriars tunnel. I’ll have a hot pink hat on and rocking a very suspect mustache. This is about running. This is not about running…

I wrote a book. Really. This isn’t a goal. This isn’t a hypothetical. This isn’t something I want to do or wish I did or have as a dream. Although there was a time that I wanted to write a book and wished I had written a book and dreamed of writing a book. But now I can say I did write a book…

Just a hypothetical question… if I were to announce that I had written a book 📕 and it was now available for pre-order how should I announce that I had written a book and it was now available for pre-order? Out your answers below and maybe I’ll do a few of them… hypothetically of course. 😉 This Is…

It’s happening! AFTER DARK TOUR 2026! Seven cities. Seven nights. See you there. 👊 #thisisaboutrunning #thisisnotaboutrunning #nikerunning #afterdarktour #running @Nike

Healing and recovery are signs of progression… movement forward. So if you’re out there working on getting better during or after a sickness or injury respect yourself and the work you are doing. And remember that great running is dependent on great recovery. This is about running. This is not…

You missed some runs? Those resolutions disappeared? You feel like you lost the momentum you had? Don’t let the past decide the future. It’s your present that has control of the wheel now. You want to change course? Do it. You may need to start again or start over. That’s okay. Because we’re not…

Miami!! You ready for race weekend? We got the Half Marathon and the Marathon to celebrate! I’ll be at the expo around NOON. I’ll probably be outside because I’m coming from Portland, Oregon and I haven’t seen the sun in weeks. Hope to see you there! @Nike @BrickellRunClub #thisisaboutrunning…

This is about running. This is not about running. It’s about going faster and farther. It’s about digging deeper and rising higher. It’s about being stronger and it’s about being kinder. It’s about starting and starting over and starting again. It’s about sharing the starting line. It’s about…

You want running to be a lifelong sport? Then play it! That’s right. You should play running just like you play basketball or football or tennis or softball or volleyball. It’s a sport. It’s meant to be played. And if it’s meant to be played then it’s important to remember it’s meant to be fun…

The question was a simple one but a loaded one too. Are there any easy miles during a marathon? Well, runners will often let the numbers on their watch or app or race clock decide that answer. But it’s not about the time. It’s about what you are doing and how you are handling what you’re during…

Another great running question I got while in NYC for the marathon was about the weirdest running advice I’ve give that actually works. So, you ready to do your Z,Y, X’s? #thisisaboutrunning #thisisnotaboutrunning #coachbennnett #running #runningtips

I got a whole bunch of great questions while I was in New York City for the marathon. The first one was about what to do during a race when you feel defeated. So, listen up runners! and thank you for watching the video. #thisisaboutrunning #thisisnotaboutrunning #coachbennnett #running #motivation…

My People!!! I’m TAKING OVER @Nike TikTok stories all day tomorrow (Sunday) while I’m here in NYC for the marathon. So drop any questions you have for me in the replies because I’ll be responding to as many of them as I can on Nike’s stories on race day while I’m cheering on the runners from Mile…
