LetsRun.com

Online/Digital
LetsRun.com is a Fort Worth-based news website and internet forum for information and discussion related to track and field, especially long-distance running. Brothers Robert and Weldon Johnson founded LetsRun.com in the spring of 2000 while Weldon was training for the U.S. Olympic Trials in Flagstaff, Arizona, with the goal of creating an online community to facilitate discussion of race results and training as well as to help promote track and field in the United States. According to the Johnsons, in 2009 the website was receiving over 200,000 unique visitors per month, and as of 2020 there have been nearly ten million posts on its message board. Despite concerns over sexism and racism and limited moderation on the message boards, LetsRun.com has been praised for its positive impact on American running and source of importance for the field. It has also become known for the quality of training information on its boards, and a number of internationally recognized coaches and athletes have posted information on their workout plans on the site, including Renato Canova and Henry Rono.

Coburn, 35, did not run any steeples in 2025 due to a nagging hamstring injury, and in her lone steeple of 2024, she broke her ankle landing in the water jump at the Shanghai Diamond League.
