Host Celeste Fong sits down with longtime friend Mike Feinberg for an unfiltered conversation about his running journey — from awkward beginnings and cross country to joining the 169 Club, Winter Warrior challenges, marathons like New York and Chicago, and embracing ultras and multi-day training.

They trade favorite race memories, parenting and community anecdotes, and the messy, motivating realities of high-mileage training, injury, and race-day chaos. The episode highlights how running became a tool for connection, stress relief, and reinvention.

Through stories of club camaraderie, volunteer races, and milestone moments like turning 50, the pair celebrate the emotional side of running and finding joy beyond PRs.
