We kick off this episode with a New York City Marathon preview including our predictions for a stacked women's race. We also talk about Meb's final marathon and what to expect on the men's side.

Then, John Schrup joins us as we begin a new series discussing the greatest male distance runners of all time including why they might be the greatest and what we can learn from their training methods. We will continue the series in future episodes to discuss the greatest women and US runners of all time. Stay tuned for more from this series.
