Meanwhile, Karen is heading to Flagstaff to visit Molly Seidel and get some altitude miles in.

The Chicks swap long run stories and share the craziest places and most creative ways they’ve squeezed in their miles. They also break down their thoughts on Parker Valby’s New Balance spikes and Gabby Thomas’s mile time trial personal best.
