This week, I’m joined by professional marathoner Jacob Thomson, coming off his race at the New York City Half Marathon. We unpack how the race played out, including the moment he found himself running solo, and what it all means with Boston just five weeks away.

We also talk about his unique role pacing some of the best runners in the world, his top tips for tackling the Boston course, and his podcast Out and Back. And of course, we couldn’t help but weigh in on the buzz around Grant Fisher’s half marathon debut.
