The pilot episode features an interview with pro marathoner, Hive Gold athlete and new mom Neely Spence Gracey, who had her first child, a son named Athens, this past July. In 2016, she won two half-marathons and finished as the top American at the Boston Marathon. Spence Gracey had planned to run through her pregnancy but ended up having to take six-months off from running, which she found to be surprisingly difficult and disorienting. She talks openly about her struggles and how she overcame them, and also about her post-pregnancy comeback, how being a working mom has changed her approach to just about everything, and how great it feels to be an athlete again. A second segment, called "Fuel School," shares nutrition strategies for before, during and after a big race from several half-marathoners from the Hive. There's also a conversation with Katie Black, who manages the Hive, explaining how the community works and what makes it so special.
