So helpful, Chris. Thank you! Now to see if my mind map software exports in OPML...

Re: How to extract value from case studies

Love this structure (of course). Good lessons here for those creating and presenting case studies as well. If the Why, What, and How aren't clear in what you prepare, your prospect is unlikely to see how those principles apply to them.

Glad you found it useful!

Re: Multitasking exacts a hefty mental performance penalty

Well, you knew I'd love this! For further reading on the idea of memory tags, you may want to check out a new book from April, "Make it Stick: The Science of Successful Learning." Those tags (that book calls them "cues") can be used quite intentionally, both to induce new learning, and importantly, when you're trying to UNlearn something (as in when you need to replace one process with another).

Thanks so much, Clay! Working with the TEDxCambridge speakers was an incredible gift. They taught me a lot -- fast -- on what special combination of factors makes for the most powerful talks.

Re: The Pinterest API: Who Needs It?

Brands also want the Pinterest API so that the platforms they use to coordinate editorial calendars and publishing can incorporate Pinterest as well. It's not as sexy as the data play, but would definitely be a stride towards efficiency of posting.

You're welcome, Alex. I'm so sorry you didn't get to finish the race you planned -- but each of us finished the race we had in front of us. I take solace in that.

Writing it helped me enormously. I'm glad it's helped you, too.

Thank you, Laura. I'm eager to get back out there and run. And run and run.

Thank you, JoAnna. You are a very, very big reason I even thought I could to this. I'm deeply grateful for that, and for you.

They speak of you often, Margaret! Thank you for your kind words.

Thank you, Shannon. I hope it does.

Thanks for running, DJ. For yourself, for Boston. I don't think I've ever felt more a part of something than I do now -- the community of runners. And I never thought I was one.

Thank YOU, Jen. We're all a part of it.

I love that idea. There are runners trying to organize a "last mile" event this weekend. I hope to take my two boys along on the run from Kenmore to Boylston.

We were running with the unicorn the whole way. We'll be faster next year, I know. And prouder with every step.

Thank you, Jeff. We are so touched that you supported us TWICE. That means an extraordinary amount.

I can't wait to hear you, Karen, whether virtually or in person. Thank you.

I always thought of you when I was training past Coolidge Corner and passed your building...and Party Favors. :)

Sadly, mid-run is not the best time for a cupcake.

Thank you, Whitney, for understanding so completely. Frustrating and confusing are exactly it.

I remember talking to you about the unexpected c-section I had with my first son -- after preparing (training!) for months for a natural birth, he was breech and never turned, so I had the most UNnatural birth imaginable. This feels much the same, in a strange way. The ending was chosen without me, but I'm still a part of it, and grateful for that.

Thank you, Kathleen! Can't wait to see you on the course next year. :)

It's a part of me now. I feel like I *have* to run.

Tamsen Webster (@tamadear) — Wed, 17 Apr 2013 18:53:31 -0000

You can count on it. And thank you.
