I combined my (borderline freak-show) obsession for track & field with my love of writing by launching a track & field T-shirt website: TrackNerdShirts.com. I sold shirts all over the world, but closed the shop because I was making far too much money. (Okay, I closed because Covid shut down the entire world of track and field).
Okay, this one takes a little explanation, but it was a top-seller. Larry Rawson, a TV track and field analyst asked, Boston Marathon champion Desi Linden after the race, “Will it be a bourbon or a whiskey night?” To which she replied the above quote. Track social media went nuts and demanded a T-shirt. I was happy to oblige.
