Week 13: The Final Week of Most Miles

The community is at 1,095 members. More people now join in a week than were in the whole community back in June. Most Miles in a Month is in its final week and swung back: Apollo 716, Poseidon 674.

What we built last week

• Top 5 WHOOP + Claude prompts: the ones that get the most out of the integration
• Hevy API + Claude: building full strength programs directly with Claude
• Google's new running features: what changed and whether it matters for how you train
• Run Rabbit Run's $100,000 purse: equal prize money for the men's and women's winners, sponsored by Insight Global
• The power of connecting with strangers: what this community has done for me personally
• Grindstone 100: scenes from crewing and pacing 27 miles and 6,400 feet of climbing through the mountains

Coming this week

• Lifting and endurance together: both data sets in one place, and how to combine them to train properly
• The final week of Most Miles
• Mindset: woven into the regular content instead of waiting on a formal series

Community notes

• Growth: 1,095 members, up from 1,039.
• Most Miles in a Month: the individual lead changed hands at 174, with the next three athletes at 142, 127 and 126.
• Build-it-for-me poll: 12 votes. Nine want a hybrid of building and learning, three want to build it themselves, and nobody picked "just build it for me." That is the result I hoped for, and it is what Athlete AI Labs is built around.
• Team backyard ultra: everyone runs 4.167 miles on the hour, every hour, until one runner is left. We are looking at spring 2027, and the interest poll is open.
