Here we, here we, here we f*ckin' ChicaGO!!!

Boarding passes ready? Welcome on board our virtual flight to Illinois as we find out all about Steven's up n coming weekender to Chicago as he chases a medal in the Windy City.

John leads our pre-race conversation as we find out about Steven's unconventional training block in a year that's been beset by tales of injuries for one half of your YHRF hosting team. We hear about adaptability and keeping discipline to ensure the marathon start line remained possible.

A mindset shift is clear as Steven reflects on the year thus far and sets a different kind of target for Sunday 8 October. Plan A went out the window many weeks ago, but what about plan's B, C and D?

John finds out not only about his current thoughts and hopes for the run but also the rest of the (long) weekend-plans, including how he's had help from YHRF family in planning the non-running actvities the city has to offer.....you knew it would turn to scran quick right, but this quick?

With a whistlestop run through his itinerary plus an intro to Steven's travel pals including a v.important info regarding a fund-raiser one of them is undertaking (see link at bottom) .

We finish up in customary fashion, dialect dictionary and song of the week. Good luck to Steven, his pals, all YHRF listeners and everyone else taking part in or helping out at the 2023 Chicago Marathon. All eyes are now on the tracker......Steven's race number? 9309
