Runner Girls

This week Meagan has to remember how to dress for fall running; Sue puts on her shoes and goes out for a run, and then another, and then another? We discuss more of Adharanand Finn’s ultra running antics in Rise of the Ultra Runners; crown a new Runner Girl of the Week; and discuss cheating… at the Paralympics? It’s still better than 2020, right guys?
