Running is for everyone, and we should... more

  • Love you guys but not the voicemail

  • ok

    Helpful to a point. Leans more to those in elite training. Hosts ego and insensitive to the entire audience sets in sometimes. Not everyone is seeking Boston, fyi.

  • Solid advice for performance

    Lots of great performance advice here. I might add a caveat that the focus isn’t health per se as much as performance but if you know that going in it’s great for your racing qiestions
