16 SEP 2024 · Everyone Freeze! This is a stick up! Don't anybody move! Thinking Toy Story aren't you? Well you should be. This week we are taking the law into our own hands. We are dealing with an issue that is always on the underbelly of the running world. That being Bandits! Yes, there are bandits among us, but they aren't wearing bandanas and holding up steam locomotives. They are running races that maybe they shouldn't be. So let's talk about these bandits and bring them to justice!

9 SEP 2024 · We're flying through September! This week is a classic stop for us. We had two races, one of which being the famous and fourteen year old Plaza 10k. Saturday we ran a new race. The Pathway to Parenthood 5k which was a great morning. This week we're going to talk about the hatred in the running world. It's silly, but unfortunately it's a thing. So be ready to look at others, but also take a peak in yourself when it comes to how we can be a better and more supportive running community.

2 SEP 2024 · We have a couple of quick race reviews including our 300th race! The bulk of this show is a listener requested deep dive into the Chicago Marathon. We did this race back in 2018. This was the first World Marathon Major we had ever done, so it was a deer in headlights kind of trip for us! We'll talk about everything that we can recall from this trip six years ago. Hopefully it will help out all of our friends going to the 2024 Bank of America Chicago Marathon!

26 AUG 2024 · Another weekend down and a new race in the books. We were at the Summer Sizzle 15k. Yes, a 15k. We're going to break the race down. Then we are going to tackle a listener requested topic. We'll talk about races and how we pick them. How do you pick the races you run. Sometimes it's a no brainer, but sometimes it can actually be due to a number of factors. Let's discuss!

19 AUG 2024 · We were falling a little behind on race reviews, so we are getting caught up today! We've had three great races all in a row. Let's talk about them. We ran the Run to Bless 5k, Rexy Run 5k, and Hearts for RMHC 10k recently. We got to see most of you there! Let's break them down and then look at what's coming up for all of us race addicts!

5 AUG 2024 · A picture is worth a thousand words. In host Kyle's case, two pictures were worth a thousand curse words! Like so many of us, we are struggling to make it through this summer training season enroute to our Fall races. We are struggling with that one dirty little word, Discipline! We have to call it what it is and then adjust to the issue. Let's talk about it. Openly and honestly with still some chances to fix our problems before it's too late!
