Episode Notes

Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us!

On this solo episode, I gave a full breakdown of the McKirdy Micro OTQ Marathon weekend! Unfortunately, the race ended in a DNF in one of the most brutal ways possible, but I have some positive takeaways about my fitness level.

At the end of the episode, I also discussed some recent running news including Berlin Half, Shelby Houlihan 10k record attempt, Albert Korir getting popped for doping, and more!
