" I'll say it fast. Hurts less when it's fast.

I'm leaving. Moving to Oregon.

I'll stay the Nike+Global Head Coach but I'll be based in Beaverton not NYC.

But before I go we have a Speed Run at Icahn Stadium tomorrow night. One last #FastestMile with NYC for me.

So sign up at www.nike.com/NYC.

Come Race With Us.

And remember, always, that I never ran a step. You did.

I never fought the doubts. You did.

I never decided to run in the rain or the cold or the heat or humidity. You did.

I never left work exhausted and still showed up for the run. You did.

I never finished the workout and immediately turned around to cheer on other athletes. You did.
