    Anyone building a gallery-style directory – what do you do for images for the listings? Sourcing them manually doesn't scale, so curious what others do. Scrape from the listing's website?

    Life lessons learned from running #7 Humans are built to endure, both physically and mentally. It's our evolutionary superpower and a trait that's not diminished by age. Fun fact: We are (almost) the only animal that can run very long distances.

    Recently read this great point about being a creator: You can only be a lawyer, accountant, doctor, etc. when someone else SAYS you are (by gaining a qualification) You can be a creator, maker, designer, entrepreneur whenever YOU decide (by doing the work)

    Life lessons learned from running #5 Appearances don’t mean anything. You don't need the strongest looking body to go a distance. Endurance strength actually comes from within.

    Life lessons learned from running #4 Patience pays off. Obsessing over fast pace and personal bests will lead to burnout or injury. Embracing slower and deeper growth gives you a much better foundation of ability.
