Most people couldn’t dream of traversing the length of Britain on foot in even the sturdiest running shoes. But for Anna McNuff the distance alone wasn’t a big enough challenge: in June, she set out to run 100 marathons through the UK, barefoot. [21:26] This week Anna shares her tales of adventure, throughout a 5 month quest to spread positivity, encourage others to redefine their limits, and reach for the impossible.

[1:00] This week on The Rundown we bring you the shocking results of speed and depth from the roads.

[13:11] The World Para Athletics Championships wrapped up in Dubai and Canada came away with 5 medals! Nate Reich won his first world title setting a 1500m championship record of 4:02:04.

[14:40] The NCAA Northeast Regional Cross-Country Championships were moved from the XC course to the roads because it snowed in Buffalo, NY. Maddy and Kate talk about the fact that almost every runner competed in the controversial Nike Next% and how this would have changed the race dramatically. They also rundown the Canadians competing at the NCAA XC Championships.
