Welcome back to another banter episode with the boys! The intro on this episode was.... wow. The boys definitely need to try out at American idol. Danny got a pair of the Puma supershoes and he is convinced they are better than the Alphafly's - what do you think? They are going to be his race shoe at Mesa next weekend!

We also talked about some recent running news, including Jacob Kiplimo's world half-marathon record NOT being ratified + a 16 year-old running 3:48 in the mile?

We finished off talking winter running (a common theme lately, it's been brutal out there for many of us) + we each listed some underrated things. Enjoy!

On this episode, the boys had on special guest Joe McMahan! Joe is our good friend and the found of gel company Azoia. If you are an OG fan of the pod, you remember we had a partnership with Azoia for a long time! After a pause in production Azoia will be back with a new look and formula this year!

We also chatted about Joe's recent marathon success with a nice 2:52 personal best, his massive growth on socials with running/lifting content, and also some insight on what life has been like for Joe as an entrepreneur!

This was a great conversation, Joe is a very insightful and thoughtful guy! Enjoy!

On this banter episode, Chris and Scotty chatted about a bunch of topics! We started off talking bees and passports (lol) but quickly got into some running conversation! One of the hot topics right now is the Cam and Truett Hanes vs Jeremy Miller drama. We gave our thoughts on that and broke down our understand of what happened.

Scotty did his first run in the Asics Metaspeed Ray this weekend and is convinced the shoe is the GOAT, have you tried it? Should Strieg which from the Alphafly?? We capped off the episode with Strieg revealing the gender of his first baby that is due in June!

Enjoy!

On this episode, the boys had special guest Michael Ottesen back on the pod! It was great to catch back up with Michael and hear how is 2025 went. He had a great race at St. George Marathon but a couple tough ones at CIM and Grandma's!

Michael is running his first-ever Boston Marathon in 2026 with an elite bib! We talked about how excited he is to run it for the first time, how he plans to pace it, and more! We also started off the pod chatting about a funny video he made recently listing his top-10 running pet peeves (the list is spot on). Enjoy!

On this episode, I (Chris) gave my thoughts on the London Marathon elite fields that just got released!

The men's race has world-record potential led by 2:02 men Sebastian Sawe and Jacob Kiplimo! I also chatted about the top British men in the field, featuring names likes Emile Cairess and Phil Sesemann.

The women's side features women's only/clean world record holding Tigst Assefa of Ethiopia with a 2:11 PR, who will be challenged by Olympic Champion Sifan Hassan and NYC/Boston Marathon Champion Hellen Obiri. I also gave my thoughts on who the top British woman will be in the field.
