Whether you’ve had to drop out of a race or if you might find yourself in those shoes at some point, this is a must-listen-to episode. Hosts Sarah and Ellison talk with four women who Did Not Finish (DNF) a race for various reasons. The guests reveal: 

-the situations that forced them the race course; 

-their respective realizations that a DNF is not a failure; 

-how they got back their running/racing mojo; 

-what the DNF taught them about themselves; and,

-what race they’re tackling next. 

Before the first DNF guest runs onto the show around 12:04, Ellison shares her own unforgettable DNF tale.
