Episode Notes

In today’s episode, Karen shares an update on her foot injury, while Megan talks about what training has looked like since getting back into workouts post-marathon.

Rachel is back with the receipts, breaking down why this year’s Boston Marathon saw massive performance jumps across the entire field. She compares improvements between the men and women, the rise in negative split performances, and the faster median times across the board.

The Chicks also answer a few listener questions:

- What’s the best way to keep track of intervals during workouts?

- If they couldn’t run for a year and had to choose another sport or form of cardio, what would it be?
