A 56:51 Half Marathon, NYC Marathon Hype & Peter’s Leadville Adventure

The Relay crew is back with a lot to catch up on. Peter, Lindsey, and Erika break down the mind-blowing new 56:51 half marathon world record, the latest from the track world, and why running just keeps getting bigger. They look ahead to the NYC Marathon, while Erika shares where she really is in her return from injury and why she’s not quite ready for the hype yet.

Peter recaps his weekend crewing at Leadville, including the very different culture around DNFs in ultras, and Erika gives a shoutout to Brian Reynolds after becoming the first double amputee to finish Leadville on his fourth attempt.

Plus: running without water, pro runners and social media, larger-than-life Brooks ads, the latest elite runner baby updates, HYROX, and Lindsey’s latest book reviews.
