40: Fast in Philly with Anthony Wiryaman

Usually, we like to stay in Zone 2, but we love a good race recap! Enjoy this episode, featuring our dear friend and 5x marathoner Anthony Wiryaman, who ran a huge PR at the Philly Marathon a 2 weeks ago! In this episode, Anthony and Francis both recount their experiences in Philly: marathon expos, hilly out-and-backs, cramps, lost gels, and so much more!

As a bonus, Anthony shares his experience running two major marathons in the fall of 2024. In the end, we tie it all together for a discussion about goal-setting, burnout, and if "the wall" actually exists. Stick around for some geography fun facts!
