Informative and versatile podcast about running.
Love this podcast! I’ve binged it since I found it. You guys are my long run companions. I’m loving all the tips/advice for this beginner-ish runner and people probably think I’m crazy for laughing while running.
Super informative and enjoyable running podcast. Covers numerous topics including training, gear and race coverage. The hosts have considerable experience and knowledge.
I listen to a lot of running podcasts and this is, no question, my favorite. The hosts are really fun to listen to, and they are also just really kind in their perspectives and how they talk about the athletes and the sport. I look forward to every episode.
Love the pod and your energy
