After setting the American Record in the Marathon, the thing I am most excited about is some girl/woman saw it and thought, ‘I can do that.’ I know they will… and I’ll be rooting for them.

- Dude, we are bummed. The D’Amatos were pumped about our trip to Atlanta to race Peachtree. Our bags were packed, flights checked in, Legoland passes secured, and Tony Slugs was already wearing his fanny pack… raincheck to 2023? In the words of ‘Arnold, I’ll be back.’Bittersweet News. American-record holder Keira D'Amato won't be running Peachtree on Monday. She's been selected by Team USA to compete in the World Championship Marathon in Eugene later this month. 1/2
- I didn’t think it was possible, but @KeiraDAmato, who was already the best follow on @strava, has upped her game
- Sorry not sorry babe! ❤️.@KeiraDAmato and her husband Anthony have a bet going for the #Chicagomarathon. If Anthony stays within 40 minutes of his wife he gets a WWE-style belt. "I think it's cute that he thinks he'll be within 40 minutes," said D'Amato.
