Coach Michaela is on the mic this week with an honest breakdown of her 2025 Grandma’s Marathon experience—from battling race week spirals to running one of her smartest marathons yet in brutal humidity. Tune in to hear what it took to shave time off her PR (again), how she stayed in control when race conditions got spicy, and the performance-boosting shifts she made in training, strength, and mindset this season.

 What You’ll Hear:

• Why a shorter training cycle actually worked better
• How she prepped for race-day heat while training in dry Denver
• The inside scoop on pacing decisions, fuel strategy & electrolytes
• What went down in those final painful miles (and why she gave the finish line a thumbs down 😂)
• Navigating post-race feelings when the A-goal almost happened
