Welcome to Episode 11 featuring Heartbreak Boston Coach and 15-time marathoner U.P. Nguyen! U.P.’s impressive running resume includes the 2022 Boston Marathon and the 2024 Chicago Marathon, and U.P. will be returning to the course to race Boston next Monday! In addition to her impressive running accomplishments, U.P. coaches as a part of the team at Heartbreak Hill Running Company. 

In this episode, we dive into the heart of the Boston running community. We chat about what it means to be a coach, explore the roots of the current running “boom”, and discuss how to find training consistency in the chaotic whirlwind of everyday life. U.P. shares lessons learned from 15 marathons and gives us a special look ahead to Marathon Monday.
