In this episode of Runnah, I’m joined by Falmouth Superintendent Lori Duerr and Mullen Hall School Principal Shannon Carlson to talk about the collaboration between the Cape Cod Marathon and Mullen Hall School—home to our start line, finish line, and race expo.

But this isn’t just about logistics. It’s about what happens when a race and a school come together to support something bigger than themselves.

We get into:
• How Mullen Hall became the home base for the Cape Cod Marathon• What this partnership means for students, families, and the Falmouth community• The impact of bringing runners and community together in one shared space• How events like this can support local schools in meaningful ways

This is one of those conversations that reminds you—running is about more than miles. It’s about community.
