❤️🩹 Megan's Return From A Setback, Berlin Marathon Highlights, Porta Potty Etiquette + Carbon Plated Crocs?
Show notes
This week, Karen and Megan chat about Boston running, trying to find the right pace on the treadmill, and whether a $160 massage is ever worth it. Megan also shares an update after missing the USATF 20K Championships because of an unexpected trip to the emergency room. She talks about getting back into training, looking ahead to the B.A.A. Half Marathon in November, and experimenting with double threshold as she works toward her next race.
The Chicks also break down some of the performances from the Berlin Marathon, including the American women who hit the OTQ. They also chat about Puma’s Project 3 and the community it's created for athletes.
Today's episode also covers getting your motivation and fitness back after falling out of a running routine, staying healthy while running and playing multiple sports, fueling, sleep, strength work, and some simple ways to stay consistent when you don't have a race on the calendar. They also answer a listener question about what you're supposed to do with your headphones when you use a porta potty during a run.
Plus: Could carbon plated Crocs be the next big thing in running?!
