Andy’s out running 100 miles, so Dom brings in Rachel Entrekin to co-pilot this month’s episode. Together they spiral through a truly unhinged game of “Would You Rather,” debating if espresso + Benadryl is a performance enhancer, and why 13,200 Bottles of Beer on the Wall might be the ultimate race soundtrack. Then Jimmy Elam drops by to talk about popping his 200-mile cherry at the Mammoth, haunted belt buckles, and his strategies for mid-run pee breaks. Along the way, we cover mystery pacers, bad juju, and the eternal question: is this all training, or just a really weird kink?
