This week on The Drop, Thomas, Robbe and Meaghan recap Eliud Kipchoge's win at the NN Mission Marathon in the Netherlands (13:40) before Robbe gives listeners the rundown on a few trail shoes that BITR reviewers are loving, including the adidas Terex Speed Ultra and Skechers Razor Trail (19:45). Then, Thomas and Meaghan are joined by adidas professional runner Charlotte Purdue, who really should be going to the Olympics but pretty much got f-ed over by British Athletics (it's a wild story). They talk about the unlikely start to her running career, running in Britain vs. the U.S., her first pro marathon, and her journey to eventually compete in the Olympics (26:50).
