Hi Dan! Love the daily facts, I start every morning off by reading your emails.

My question is what was your main motivation for starting to write these daily essays?

Hi Nick, I've been a huge fan of yours since the '08 Olympic trials (Link for the uninitiated) and a big fan of what you've done for the sport lately beyond racing.

What is your end goal for athletes rights for advertising/sponsorship on their uniforms/skin/etc? And what would it take to get there?

What exactly is RunGum?

Why would a sponsor choose to purchase advertising space under tape and how fast are you allowed to remove said piece of tape?

Favorite 800m specific workouts?

Just how crazy was the 2012 Olympic finals to be a part of?

Thanks for stopping by and good luck this season!

Hey guys, big fan of the show. How do you make the podcasts on material you have just learned about seem so conversational as if you've had this knowledge for your whole life?

Thanks so much for the thorough answer! I'd love to see zero restrictions as well, do you see that happening or do too many of the bigger named companies in the sport have too much at stake to relinquish control?

Also forgot to ask, I coach a collegiate cross country team, do you have any advice or words of wisdom to pass onto them? I'd love to hang a quote from you in the locker room with some of the others I've spoken to!

Which song did you remix? I would love to hear your remix.

Also, I checked out your music and really enjoyed it, best of luck with your career!
