This is the first time I've commented on an article and so many have inspired me. This article resonates so completely I felt I just had to express my sincere thanks, Terrell, for all your work and sharing so much knowledge and incite. In today's world, Jesse Owens' story strikes a resounding note of hope for mankind. Thank You Again.
Beautiful, powerful story Terrell—thanks as always for your inspiration. I also appreciated your perspective about this weekend’s virtual half to those of us who aren’t feeling ready to focus on running what we can. That’s what I needed to hear! I’m hoping for a 10-miler with gratitude that I can run even if my training got interrupted by life.
Terrell - that story is just amazing. I had never heard it, and am very moved by it on so many levels: 1) the sportsmanship!! (we all need to demonstrate that!), 2) the relationship that defied all odds, 3) the calm and perseverance amidst such stress, and 4) following through on that promise. For so many reasons I needed to hear that story today. Thank you for sharing it. I plan to "pay it forward". And on a running note, in spite of knee issues, I had a GREAT run today, in the pouring rain. I felt so happy, liberated, and most of all grateful. Be well, and stay healthy Terrell, and everyone in this community!
“Tell him about the times when the war did not separate us — and tell him that things can be different between men in this world.”
What a beautiful story that is sadly still all too relevant today. Thank you so much for sharing.

My gosh! You see why I say this is where I go for inspiration. Thank you.
This story is so touching and timely. I hope we will all learn something from Jesse and Luz.

Great story Terrell, thanks for sharing. I had heard a version years ago but never as fully told as this. Grace means so much more than accolades.
