Going Off Course

LA Marathon Recap, Trust Funds, and Twerking During a Race


Listen Later

In this episode, we recap a BIG one: the LA Marathon. But first - what would you do if you wanted a sandwich, but they only have quiches? Huge PRs were had, but not without chafing and questionable handheld water bottle storage. We get into everything from emotional math mid-race to the cult-like energy of pace groups and an interesting realization—do you share your marathon PR from your watch or the official course time?


Also featuring:

•Carolyn’s proud post-race pee moment

•PSA: Don’t open your Liquid IV with your teeth

•Would you rather fuel your LR with Maurten or eat a steak dinner?

•The existential fear of dropping your phone into a porta-potty

•Rhombus-shaped butt chafing and marathon twerking

•Perfect poop mornings, race day influencers, special shoelaces, and why PRs feel weird


Shout out to Micah, Magellan’s spiritual descendant navigating Dodger Stadium, and everyone who has ever cooked a meal after running 26.2 miles on pure willpower.


And yes—Michelle really did say there are 22 weeks in a year.
