Welcome to Chasing Three Hours, a podcast about what runners are chasing, why they keep pushing themselves, and what keeps them curious! On this episode of the podcast, Amy DeLong joined Josh to discuss:

  • Not PRing at her most recent marathon but still feeling great about the day (3:54)
  • Being addicted to getting better and how it showed itself (11:39)
  • Running her first marathon and being disappointed with the result (15:47)
  • Winning her hometown marathon (28:10)
  • How winning the Lincoln Marathon changed her expectations for herself (33:47)
  • Taking a step back from running in 2023 and what brought her back (46:00)
  • A DNF at the 2024 Illinois Marathon and turning the page right away (53:14)
  • What she's currently chasing (1:04:06)

And a whole lot more!
