Mark Remy is the creator of DumbRunner.com, an independent, ad-free website aimed at runners who (a.) like to laugh, (b.) think running can and should be simple, and (c.) are fed up with sources that apparently aren’t on board with (a.) and (b.). As a longtime runner (28 marathons), writer (5 books, 10 years as a staffer or contributor to Runner’s World), and wise-ass (7 1/2 years publishing the satirical online column Remy’s World), he felt he was uniquely positioned to launch a website like Dumb Runner. So in November 2015, he did it. Three days a week or more, he publishes articles, reader Q&A, digital “posters,” and other stuff. Every Friday morning, he mails a newsletter called The Dumb Digest, a fun roundup of that week’s news (running and otherwise) and other items of interest to weird runners. In addition, he answers readers’ questions, on running or whatever people feel like asking. #\n\n##\n\n
