  • Great motivator

    I saw the WARP club suggested on Strava and decided to check it out. So glad that I did!

    I’m a busy dad and mostly run solo. I really miss getting out for social runs so found it great to hear the banter and trash talk about local routes.

    Since listening to the podcast I’ve found myself to be more intentional with my runs. Looking forward to this motivation continuing as I work towards my next PB

  • Local running news done right

    Great content so far - keep it up! Love hearing about local running routes, news and upcoming races.

    Would give 6 stars if “Time Warp” was the intro music, but probably not in the budget (yet). Could be a good name for a segment though…
