In today’s episode, the Chicks dive into how Strava could be turned into the ultimate dating app for runners – made complete with a “Getting Chicked” badge, of course! Karen also gives some of her own updates on using dating apps. We also share our thoughts on Chipotle's Strava segment challenge where runners in Chicago have been running a 0.2-mile segment to try and win free Chipotle for a year.

Rachel hits us with her first receipts of 2025, where she compares weather conditions across some of the most popular marathons in the U.S. Megan also gives us an update on training as she enters her eighth month of pregnancy.
