10 of Our Favorite Puns From Keira D’Amato’s Strava
The American record holder isn’t just a great runner—she’s an excellent punner too. Here are some of our favorite jokes from her Berlin Marathon buildup.

Keira D’Amato has a lot to celebrate. Not only did she recently win the USATF 20K Championships in New Haven, Connecticut on September 5, but she did so in a new course record time of 1:04:29 (that’s 5:11 mile pace!). This Sunday, September 25, the 37-year-old will attempt to break her own American record marathon time of 2:19:12 at the Berlin Marathon.
In preparation, D’Amato’s running log has been on fire—and not just because of her training. She’s been sharing hilarious puns in the captions of her Strava posts for awhile now—but her Berlin buildup has yielded some particularly funny ones. Here are 10 of our recent favorites.
