  • Not really about runners of NYC

    Listened several episodes and left me feeling I am not a runner of NYC. Overwhelming focused on fast guys as if there's nothing worth to learn from the other 99.9% of NYC runners. These guys are very sef-centered, and biased by classism, racism, ableism and ageism.
