Joe Gray just won the men’s classic race at the World Mountain Running Championships!
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.
That’s how it happened for me. When I was in elementary school, my family lived on a U.S. Army base in Germany for three years. 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. It didn’t matter what color anyone’s skin was, where they came from, or what language they spoke. We were just kids having fun and being free. That’s how I learned to love running.But, life was different when our family moved back to the U.S.
