#347 - Sometimes a race you love, you look forward to every year is discontinued. It leaves a hole in your heart, because that race meant so much to you. This week, I talk about a handful of races that meant something to me and others because they're no longer around. There are a variety of reasons why races are canceled, Covid being the biggest one in recent years. But there are other reasons. Did I not mention a race you miss? You can email me and tell me about it. Give me the name of the race and why it was so special. I'd love to do a follow up add-on to another show with a few more discontinued races.

#345 - You found the PERFECT shoe. You love this shoe. Everything about this shoe makes running SO MUCH FUN. And then it happens. The running shoe company comes out with a new model and it's not the same shoe! NOT AT ALL! It fits completely different! And not in a good way. Everything you loved about this shoe is gone! It's a completely different shoe! Why did the shoe company betray you like that? Because that's what it feels like, betrayal. This week, I write an open letter to shoe companies stating a few reasons, the above is just one, why we runners get frustrated with shoe companies. If I inadvertently left off something you think I should have included, please email me and I can include a follow up in a future episode.

And don't miss my book review on the latest Steve Prefontaine biography: The Front Runner: The Life of Steve Prefontaine by Brendan O'Meara!
