Chris and Zacca share their training updates. Chris crushed some hill reps and enjoyed a long run banking 83km for the week in preparation for the Burnley Half Marathon. Zacca reflects on consistent weeks with workouts and sets his sights on increasing mileage, embracing the challenge. He also shares his experience running in the new Asics Kayano 31, discussing his impressions and the shoe's legacy with Chris.

This week's guest is Taren "Taz" Kirby, a Run2PB member since May 2020. Taz has achieved personal bests in distances ranging from 1500m to the Half Marathon, competing in track, road, and cross country races. Known for her consistency and determination, Taz faced a major challenge in mid-2023 with a breast cancer diagnosis. Demonstrating incredible strength, she completed treatment and is now cancer-free. Remarkably, she even set a new 5km PB of 26:31 in June 2024.

The episode dives into Taz's running journey, recent challenges, and her responses to Chris' "medium-quick" questions.
