I’ve been listening to this podcast to understand fitness and running. What’s crazy is all the other things you get along the way. These two have incredible chemistry. Megan is so wonderful and smart. They read EVERYTHING related to the science of sport and package it perfectly for your consumption. They have shown us that if you put your truth out in the world, sometimes your dreams come true. Love wins!
