No words. @fast.a.f is generous and talented, thank you to @runnersworldmag for taking a chance on us.Running the 2022 NYC Marathon was a life changing experience, one that I will cherish and celebrate for years to come. AS SHOULD YOU. Why are we not celebrating ourselves more, your mind and body took you to a place that only 0.01% of the global population will go. It is a million miles that culminate in the final 26.2…. This is to be celebrated, cherished and remembered.This is why I created TWENTYSIXDIAMOND. It needed to be product led, the highest quality that is worthy of our great accomplishment.If you are running #tcsnycmarathon2023 , know I’ll be there, cheering you on… under my old fire escape on first Avenue at mile 16. You are incredible. by @twentysixdiamond

@itsshacarri has now become a three-time U.S. Outdoor 100m Champion.Her climb hasn’t been linear. It has included setbacks, scrutiny, comebacks, and constant evolution. That’s what makes this achievement even more meaningful. The fastest athletes don’t just train their bodies—they build resilience, confidence, and the ability to perform when it matters most.Held this year at Icahn Stadium on Randall’s Island in New York City, the 2026 @usatf Outdoor Championships brought together the fastest and most accomplished athletes in America to compete for one of the sport’s most prestigious national titles.As @usatf continues to raise the level of American sprinting and @worldathletics showcases one of the deepest eras in track history, athletes like @itsshacarri continue to inspire the next generation to dream bigger, work harder, and embrace the journey instead of fearing the obstacles.The road to the top is difficult. Staying there is even harder.Congratulations to a true competitor whose story continues to remind us that consistency is one of the rarest forms of greatness.💎#TrackAndField #Sprint #USATF #WorldAthletics ShaCarriRichardson by @twentysixdiamond

Run clubs are evolving—and so is the tech behind them ✨For years, organizing a run club meant juggling Instagram posts, group texts, spreadsheets, waivers, RSVPs, and hoping everyone showed up in the right place at the right time. Platforms like OPS RUN @opsrunning are changing that by giving clubs one place to create events, manage registrations, collect digital waivers, track attendance, share photos, and build community. Think less social app and more operating system.The timing couldn’t be better. New York City has become one of the world’s great running communities, with clubs like @nyrr, @nycruns, @dashingwhippets, @brooklyntrackclub, @northbrooklynrunners, @harlemrun, @endorphinsrunning, @wearenycrunning, @almostfridayrunclub, @runclub.usa and dozens more welcoming everyone from first-time 5K runners to Abbott World Marathon Majors finishers.And OPS RUN isn’t the only company recognizing what’s happening. New platforms like @joinpaceway are also building technology specifically around run club discovery, RSVPs, and community management—proof that the future of running isn’t just about watches. It’s about making it easier for people to find their community. At TWENTYSIXDIAMOND, we believe every finish line starts with finding your people. The technology may change, but the reason we show up never does 💎#RunClub #RunningCommunity #NYCRunning #MarathonTraining #TWENTYSIXDIAMOND by @twentysixdiamond

100 DAYS. 50 YEARS. 5 BOROUGHS…. Best day of the year ✨In just 100 days, more than 50,000 runners will stand in front of the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge for the 50th running of the @nycmarathon, beginning an unforgettable journey through every borough of New York City. Since 1976, this race has become more than a marathon—it has become one of the world’s greatest celebrations of perseverance, community, and human potential. @nyrrBut what makes New York truly special isn’t just race day. It’s the process. It’s the early mornings in Central Park, the West Side Highway, Prospect Park, and running those famous bridges. It’s the communities and clubs that can take a walker to a jog, a jogger to a run, and a dreamer to a marathoner ✨From the legendary crews at @centralparkrunning @novemberprojectnyc, @midnightrunnersnyc, @orchardstreetrunners, @oldmanrunclub, @harlemrun, @northbrooklynrunners and @newyorkflyers, to the incredible work being done every day by @paragonrunning, @fleetfeetnyc and @brooklynrunningco, New York continues to prove that the city’s greatest training partner is its running community. Every pace belongs, as reminded by @backofthepack.runclub ✨Whether you’re chasing a Boston qualifier, your first marathon, or simply trying to become a stronger version of yourself, the next 100 days are where the real race is won.The medal is awarded on race day.The marathoner is built during these next 100 days.Here’s to 50 years of unforgettable moments—and to everyone who will add their own story to New York City’s greatest tradition this November 💎#NYCMarathon #twentysixdiamond #MarathonTraining #EverydayMedal by @twentysixdiamond

As the @tcssydneymarathon continues to redefine what a modern @Abbott @wmmajors can be, partnerships like @marathonstateofmind represent something much bigger than a single race. Running is entering an era where community, technology, and personalization are converging. AI isn’t replacing great coaches—it is making world-class guidance accessible to millions of runners.We’re already seeing that transformation across the sport. @runna has become one of the most recognized personalized training platforms and is preparing for deeper integration with @strava following their announced acquisition. Meanwhile, @coopahruncoach has introduced AI-powered coaching with 24/7 guidance and race-readiness scoring, while Humango uses AI to dynamically adjust training based on recovery, wearable data, and real-life schedules.The next frontier goes even further.Working with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), the Sydney Marathon is exploring innovations including predictive finish times, enhanced spectator experiences, and AI-driven physiological analysis that could help athletes optimize performance.This feels remarkably similar to what happened with GPS watches.First they recorded workouts.Then they analyzed them.Now they help coach them.Soon, your training partner may understand your sleep, stress, heart rate variability, nutrition, recovery, race goals, weather, and every workout you’ve ever completed—and adjust tomorrow’s run before you even lace up your shoes.The best coaches will always provide something AI cannot: wisdom, empathy, and lived experience. But AI is rapidly becoming the world’s most accessible assistant coach, giving everyday runners insights that were once reserved for elite athletes.The future of coaching isn’t AI versus humans.It’s AI plus humans—helping more people arrive at the start line healthy, confident, and ready to discover what they’re capable of✨ #twentysixdiamond #marathonrunner #marathonstateofmind by @twentysixdiamond

Boston just changed the game….✨In one of the biggest registration changes in decades, @bostonmarathon and the @baa1957 have announced the new Boston Marathon Qualifier Selection (BMQS) for the 2027 race.Here’s what it actually means.You still must earn a Boston Qualifying (BQ) time on a certified marathon. You still register during the normal application window. And runners whose qualifying times are fast enough to make the final cutoff will continue to receive priority.The difference? If you earn a BQ but your time falls just outside the final cutoff because the race reaches capacity, you’ll now have a second chance. Approximately 1,000 qualified runners who missed the cutoff will be selected at random to receive a Boston Marathon entry.This is a second opportunity for runners who have already done the hard part!!For years, athletes have crossed the finish line with a Boston Qualifier only to discover that it wasn’t quite enough because the cutoff moved beyond the published qualifying standard. This new process acknowledges those performances while preserving the prestige of qualifying for one of the world’s most iconic races.As fellow Abbott World Marathon Majors race @worldmarathonmajors continues to grow in popularity, demand for Boston has never been higher. This change gives more qualified athletes the opportunity to experience Boylston Street while maintaining the integrity that has made Boston the gold standard of marathon running.At TWENTYSIXDIAMOND, we believe the medal celebrates the finish line, but the jewelry celebrates everything it took to earn it.💎#BostonMarathon #BostonQualifier #AbbottWMM #Marathon by @twentysixdiamond

Every triathlon starts with the same question: How far are you willing to go?Whether you’re diving into your first Super Sprint or chasing the finish line of an @ironman every distance demands courage, discipline, and commitment.Super Sprint400 m swim • 10 km bike • 2.5 km runSprint750 m swim • 20 km bike • 5 km runOlympic (Standard)1.5 km swim • 40 km bike • 10 km run70.31.9 km swim • 90 km bike • 21.1 km run140.63.8 km swim • 180 km bike • 42.2 km runSome of the most iconic triathlons in the United States have become bucket-list events for athletes around the world. From the legendary @escapefromalcatraztri in San Francisco, to the world-class @chicagotriathlon, the historic @stanthonystri in St. Petersburg, the spectacular @malibutri, and the unforgettable @ironmantri races across the country, every start line represents years of training and a lifetime of memories.No matter which distance you choose, the finish line isn’t the end of the journey—it’s proof of who you became along the way.Every distance is extraordinary✨Every finish deserves an Everyday Medal™.#Triathlon #IRONMAN703 #IRONMAN #SwimBikeRun #EverydayMedal by @twentysixdiamond

A World Cup final isn’t just 90 minutes of football….It is also one of the most demanding endurance performances in sports.Most outfield players will cover the equivalent of a 10K to eight miles during the match. Think about that: a recreational runner may train for weeks to complete a 5K—3.1 miles—or a 10K—6.2 miles.On the world’s biggest stage, the athletes followed by @fifaworldcup and @fifa cover those same distances while sprinting, cutting, accelerating, decelerating, tackling, jumping, passing, shooting and making split-second decisions under unimaginable pressure. A World Cup final is essentially a 10K performed through repeated explosive efforts, with a world championship on the line.For Argentina’s @afaseleccion and Spain’s @sefutbol, every one of those miles represents years of training, sacrifice and belief. The game’s greatest moments are amplified around the world through football communities such as @433, but behind every highlight is an athlete who kept moving long after the distance itself became difficult. Good luck to all athletes today ✨@twentysixdiamond#FIFAWorldCup #WorldCupFinal #10K #Running #EverydayMedal by @twentysixdiamond
