On this episode, Chris previews the women's and men's elite fields for the NYC Marathon this Sunday!
New York is such a fun race to watch because it is a hilly course with no pacers. On top of that, we have two legendary fields on each side here, featuring names like Eliud Kipchoge and Sifan Hassan! We are in store for some great race action this Sunday!
I also briefly touched on the drama with Iowa State's XC team on this episode at the end.
Enjoy!

On this episode, the boys had back on special guest Dakotah Popehn! Dakotah just finished top-10 at the Chicago Marathon and 2nd American woman with a PR of 2:24.
Her training block indicated the best fitness of her life and potential sub-2:20 marathon shape. Although the stars didn't align in Chicago, Dakotah is extremely motivated to continue pushing for fast times and a World Marathon Major podium one day.
We broke down Dakotah's training block, race, fueling, and more on this episode. It was really insightful and interesting to hear about some behind the scenes things from her!
Enjoy!

On this episode, the boys chatted a lot about tapering. Scotty wants to change some things up about his tapers going forward before marathons, and Danny explained how he likes to taper leading into his peak race of Indianapolis Marathon in 2 weeks.
We talked about Danny's fitness going into Indy, whether or not the 5-4-3-2-1 long run is the best for peak long runs or not, and Strieg confirmed if he is pacing Danny at Indy live on the pod!

On this episode, we had special guest and newly minted 2:23 marathoner Ben Felton on! One week ago, Ben ran a perfectly executed marathon in Chicago, running a slight negative split, to run his first marathon PR in 2 years. After running 2:24 at Boston in 2023, Ben dealt with some adversity, including a stress fracture and brutal heat at the 2025 London Marathon, before finally having this special day in Chicago!
We broke down his training block, the entire Chicago weekend, his next race plans, and more! At the end, we also chatted about advice he has for someone who wants to do content full-time.
This was a really fun episode, please consider following Ben on his socials below if you don't already!

On this episode, Chris and guest host Jacob Thomson broke down the Chicago Marathon elite field races. Jacob paced top American female Natosha Rogers from start to finish, so his insight from that experience, having many friends in the elite field, and being a 2:11 man himself was really great on this episode.
We broke down the top finishers from the men's and women's races but largely focused on how the Americans fared as well.
At the end, we had a few minutes to talk about Jacob's trying as he gears us for the US Marathon Champs at CIM, where he hopes to break 2:10 in the marathon.
Enjoy!

Danny just raced a half-marathon and snagged a PR but didn't run quite what he wanted on a hot day and hilly course. He is still focused on trying to break 2:40 at the Indy Marathon here in a few weeks!

On this episode, the boys had Rory Linkletter back on for his final thoughts leading into the Chicago Marathon this weekend. The Canadian and North American Marathon record was set by legend Cam Levins and sits at 2:05:36. We do a deep dive into Rory's training block, which he rated a 9/10, where he thinks he has found the fitness to go after this time.We also chatted about competing against Connor Mantz, and Rory told us what would be going through his head if him and Mantz were together with a mile to go. They will likely be running a large portion of this race together considering the American record is only 2 seconds slower than the Canadian record. If you weren't excited for Chicago yet, this episode will get you there.

On this episode, the boys had on our good friend Corbin Harris! Corbin is one of the best marathoners in Kentucky history, with times of 2:21 and 66 minutes in the half. If you remember the KDF Half-Marathon this past year where Strieg got 3rd, Corbin was 45 seconds up the road winning the race!
Unfortunately Corbin had to pull out of Chicago at the last second due to a stress fracture in his foot, but he is planning on running the Marathon Project in December. We chatted about his history with injuries and how he handles those mentally.
We also chatted about what he is doing to go all in and try to qualify for the Olympic Trials Marathon. We love when someone is finding time to make it happen between the hours of work and life!
Enjoy!

On this episode, Chris previewed the elite field for the Chicago Marathon!
On the women's side, we have a strong Ethiopian and Kenyan contingent leading the field, with 5 women sub-2:20. Last year's winner set the world record with a 2:09, but was subsequently banned for a doping violation. Leading the Americans is Olympian Dakota Popehn, hoping to break her 2:24 PR and run in the low 2:20s!
On the men's side, we have the winner of the last Chicago Marathon and Boston Marathon leading the way, John Korir, and he wants to run FAST! World record fast? We will see! Pushing him will be half-marathon world record holder Jacob Kiplimo of Uganda.
And of course - we have Connor Mantz and Rory Linkletter trying to run under the North American record of 2:05:36. Also - Galen Rupp's last race potentially? We will see!
So many fun storylines this year, hope you enjoy the preview!

We also chatted about Cole's long-term vision for his running career and he also hinted about a new coach he is bringing on for his next race in 10 weeks. Give him a follow on his socials linked below!

On this episode, the boys had our good friend Iggy Gamboa on the podcast! We met Iggy at the Boston Marathon this year and he ran the entire race with Scotty and Danny. It was fun to relive their experience from the race and all the funny moments.
Not only is Iggy a 2:38 marathoner, he just completed his first Ironman! We learned about how he approached Ironman training coming from a running only background. He had a great race and finished in 11 hours on a brutally hilly course.
Enjoy!

On this episode, the boys had on Nick Bester! Nick is the head coach of Best Athletics, 2:19 Marathoner, and content creator! He has an amazing story of starting to run with a 25:00 5k and is now a 2:19 marathoner.
Something we didn’t know as much about was his journey with Best Athletics. He was an investment banker up until COVID then decided to go all in on his coaching business and content creation! It has been a huge success and he is living out his passion.
Enjoy!
