Untitled[edit]

This article needs references added in the text. I will create headings. KarateLadyKarateLady 02:12, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Article needs a rewrite. First paragraph should provide a summary of what is listed in the article and as mentioned above, references added in appropriate places. KarateLadyKarateLady 02:16, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Would like to add a note about the article, "White Men Can't Run," which was included in Best American Sports Writing, but I can't remember the original publication year of the article, nor the BASW year. - Pjmorse 00:53, 23 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pj, FYI[edit]

Pj, I put a post on your talk page. I found a link that might be helpful for you. Cheers to you, KarateLadyKarateLady 03:12, 23 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the lead. I've added that along with a few other details and formatting tweaks. - Pjmorse 13:00, 23 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vegetarian[edit]

I removed the sentence about Amby's vegetarianism in my edits because it seemed like a random, disconnected idea jammed in with everything else. It seemed forced.

Now it's back, so apparently not everyone agrees. Comments, anyone? - Pjmorse 01:54, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Today, the problem I see with the statement is there is no citation. SlowJog (talk) 16:24, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
