Bryan and Peter step out of the studio for a visit to the great outdoors. Okay, it’s really just Bryan’s backyard. But, there’s nature! Peter confesses he is mulling the idea of an ultra race sooner rather than later. Bryan confesses he is injured and thinking about his next steps to resolve the issue. Plus, Peter learns a bit about raising chickens. 

Peter and Bryan welcome Sabrina Dello Russo who talks about starting long distance running after she and her friends were injured in the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing. She shares how she hopes to inspire other new runners as the lead runner for the Seacoast Running Festival this June. Then, more stories of woe and triumph from this year's marathon as Sabrina and Peter compare notes. Later, Bryan and Peter chat with super-fans Corinne and Jeremy who had come to wave HWYRT signs outside the studio windows. Corinne, known to some as Boston's Running Unicorn, ran all of her Boston Marathon training miles wearing a unicorn horn to raise money for Brookline Libraries.

The people demanded it!  We delivered it!

In honor of everyone taking part in the 121st running of the Boston Marathon, we present all of the Clyde Army Countdowns to help motivate you though the big race! 

Our giant 75th episode of HWYRT is coming this Thursday. See you soon. 

The management. 

Peter is a bundle of taper nerves as Bryan coaches him on his goals (and sub goals) for the upcoming Boston Marathon. Plus, it’s the dramatic conclusion to the Clyde Army Countdown! Then, an interview with podcaster, entrepreneur, and athlete Katy Galli, who discusses what it really takes to Keep Moving Forward and follow your passions.  http://keepmovingforward.us

Peter impresses Bryan with his treadmill skills, while Bryan experiences some sympathy taper emotions. Then a visit with the Queen of Feedback Corner Lauren Madden to answer an intriguing listener question about how to explain to non-runners why some runners love to race. Plus, the penultimate Clyde Army Countdown!

Bryan is on the injury deck again, while Peter has completed his 21-mile training run. Also, it's Week 3 of the Clyde Army Countdown. Then the guys speak with brother and sister running team, Eileen Lingley and Tim Morris. The siblings are running the Boston Marathon for Spaulding Hospital’s Race for Rehab Team. This will be Eileen’s first Boston Marathon (and fourth marathon in 18 months!) and Tim’s second year in the wheelchair division.

Over the last 35 years, Wayne Levy has run more than 100,000 miles. What does he do when he’s not out running more than halfway to the Moon? He serves on the Boston Athletic Association Board of Governors and the Advisory Board for Back on My Feet Boston, and he manages RunBoston, a company that provides historical running tours in Boston. Bryan and Peter get Wayne to give them the lowdown on the benefits of running a “daily dime,” find out what happened the first time Wayne attempted to run the Boston Marathon, and go in-depth on ways to avoid injury. Plus, Peter provides an update on Week 4 of the Clyde Army Countdown.

Peter survives running 18 miles on the treadmill, while Bryan considers never using a treadmill again. Then they talk with two runners who will be running the Boston Marathon together: Tim Sullivan, a visually impaired runner (and proud member of the Clyde Army) and writer Mark Remy (dumbrunner.com and Runner’s World) who will be Tim’s guide. They talk about how Tim got into running, how Mark has settled into runner’s paradise (a.k.a. Portland, OR), and how they came to be running the marathon together.
