We're not waiting till next Monday to drop this one!

In this special Christmas episode of the Any Given Runday Podcast, we reflect on the year and answer your Instagram questions, including about our favourite races and events from the past year. We also share our race goals and plans for 2025, including the highly anticipated AGR Group Barcelona Marathon and other major events.

We got a great, wide variety of questions. Thank you to everyone who submitted a question! 

We also tackle various listener-submitted questions on topics ranging from balancing strength training with running to maintaining motivation, as well as the notable bits of advice we received from guests throughout the year.
