🚀 Rachel's Breakthrough Half Marathon, Karen's Future Running Plans + How To Survive Treadmill Runs
About this episode
After knocking on the door with countless 1:17 half marathons, Rachel finally breaks through with a 1:16 last weekend! She breaks down the race, why everything clicked on the day, and the biggest lessons she’s taking away for the next one. Next up, she’s heading to the start line of the Napa Valley Half.
Karen checks in with an update on her road back to fitness, what training has looked like lately, and racing the Shamrock Shuffle in Chicago next month.
The Chicks also share some tips for making treadmill miles go by faster when you’re stuck indoors.
Plus: A listener writes in with a story about racing a half marathon on the 160m indoor track at Notre Dame's student gym!
