MENGENAI EPISOD INI
Who says nothing is going on in the running world? The LRC team finds plenty to talk about as Jon returns from vacation and gets his tips including a big one from an anonymous for now running legend.
The Houston half marathon field (Sara Hall vs Molly Huddle vs Jordan Hasay) and Wanamaker mile fields are out, Wejo says Galen Rupp won’t make the Olympic marathon team, Sam Chelanga may be back, and what is the 2020 LetsRun.com challenge?
The team is joined by Wejo’s mother-in-law at the end to see what she does and does not know about the sport (and she shares a family connection to the 1980 Miracle on Ice).
