I review the scary-good Brooks Ghost Max, a shoe that will have you cheering, not boo-ing Brooks; detail why speed workouts are the most exciting installments of a training plan; explain why hot running weather in January in Virginia is totally natural, and, I launch an all-new dating app—strictly for runners. Sorry, walkers.

• Brooks Ghost Max Review: Brooks continues to innovate their shoes, and the latest example appears in the form of a ghost—but this ain't your father’s Brooks Ghost. So, how does it compare to your father's Brooks Ghost?

• Fast & Furious: A Runner's Urgent Need for Speed (Work): I know what you're thinking: this sounds like the lamest possible title of a sequel from the ridiculously long-running movie franchise. You’re not wrong. But, when it comes to running, speed work is the most exciting installment of a training plan.

• Hot Running Weather in the Winter—Totally Natural: This winter, there was a week of unseasonably warm running weather throughout the east coast of the U.S. Listen to the inner monologue rattling around my fevered brain during one of these uncommonly warm runs.

• Dating App for Runners: Just as it’s nearly impossible to find the right pair of running shoes, finding a partner for either romance or a drunken, sweaty one-night romp that leaves you both feeling regretful and even lonelier in the morning and severely questioning your life choices, is equally difficult. Luckily, there's a new dating app for runners and runners only.
