What’s it like to set a world record? Find out by listening to this episode, featuring two members of the 100 x 1 mile world-record-setting relay, plus the event’s organizer. The relay, which took place last month at San Francisco State’s Cox Stadium, saw the with team break the former record by 5 minutes (averaging 5:35 per runner)! Hosts Dimity and Sarah WF chat with their guests about: 

  • how this relay came to be, with organizer Shawn Sax sharing the logistics and planning;
  • what it was like to be a 3-time participant of the 100×1 mile relay, with veteran Peggy Lavelle offering insight on how the event has evolved;
  • what it meant to be representing as a #motherrunner in the relay, with expectant mom Sarah Swanger, who participated while 5 1/2 months pregnant;
  • and much more about this historic moment in women’s running.
