But the problem is deeper than just the lack of media coverage. There are few U.S.-born black collegiate and professional distance runners in the U.S because they’re not encouraged to run long distances when they’re in high school, not recruited to run for college programs often, and don’t get offers to join pro teams.

My older brother and I spent all day outside, running and exploring the forests of West Germany with all of the kids on the base.
