@nycmarathon was an absolute dream ☁️ Lots more about today to come soon, but for now I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who supported us throughout this journey but especially today. We saw so many friends and family out on the course today that you all made New York City feel like home. A special shoutout to my parents, Por-Por, and sister who trekked ALL over the city just to see us run by for a few seconds, to all of our @clarendonrunclub & DC fitness community friends who traveled up for the race, to my local NYC friends & family who came out to cheer us on, and to the Internet friends I found on the subway, in the start village, and around the course today. This truly is THE greatest city in the world. I love you guys and I love New York - now time to go celebrate! #nycmarathon #tcsnycmarathon #nycmarathon2026
And just like that you’re 30… Just another day, year, decade on this earth! Thanks for the love and support. ❤️🫶🎉🎈

Apparently sucralose is DESTROYING your gut microbiome. Someone should tell the human trials. 🙄 A new systematic review (PMID: 42794802) of 10 randomized controlled trials found no significant pooled effects of sucralose on: 🦠 Gut microbial alpha diversity 🧪 Fecal short-chain fatty acids, including butyrate 🩸 Fasting glucose or insulin resistance assessed by HOMA-IR Some individual studies reported lower butyrate, while others found no effect. The pooled result wasn’t statistically significant, and changes in bacterial composition were inconsistent. Does this prove sucralose has ZERO effect? No. These were small, short studies, and some estimates had wide confidence intervals. We need longer, better-controlled trials. But “sucralose DESTROYS your gut” is absolutely absurd based on these results. The available human evidence does NOT demonstrate a consistent adverse effect, much less the dramatic damage being claimed online. Also, a change in gut bacteria doesn’t automatically mean your health got worse. You need evidence connecting that change to an actual adverse outcome. The certainty of the social media hot takes is far greater than the certainty of the evidence. 🤷‍♂️
