  • Hard to listen to

    Was once an ok show, but with each passing episode, it becomes harder to listen to without feeling in some way lectured to about something political or extremely liberal. Very unenjoyable now and won’t be coming back. Runners, there are other podcasts out there.

  • Chris Chavez practices what he preaches!

    I’ve been a listener for a while now, enjoy nerding out while I hear Chris and Preet break down race performances and speculate on future ones. Love the data driven estimates but also the intuition of the hosts. Imagine my surprise while I was doing my long run on the Central Park loop and I look up and see Chris running towards me looking while his voice was in my ear!

  • Want to be a fan

    I used to love this podcast… And really want to again! But the amount of times Chris says “I guess” to prompt a question has made it so hard to listen. At least 50x a pod. You’re great Chris. And you know a lot. Don’t need to guess!
