Rust Belt Running

This week the boys take a look at what it means to be in the Off-Season of training. From strength training, to easy miles, to enjoying time off and R&R, December is a time to take a step back. Enjoy your family and some rest. Maintain some fitness, but recover physically and mentally.

The boys take a week off of discussing running to discuss their real passion, hating Michigan. Reliving favorite moments, hoping for new moments, and making predictions, this week is all about the Buckeyes.

Putting on a race in a non-pandemic year is tough. Cancelling a race even tougher. Putting on a race the year after, while still going through the pandemic? We'll let Columbus Marathon Race Director Darris Blackford answer that for you...

This week the boys sit down with Austin Miller. Austin takes us on the trails of the Burning River 100 mile race, and the journey that started in an ambulance just minutes after the finish. From depths of doubt and confusion, to huge steps in recovery, Austin shares his story.

This week the boys recap the Cleveland Marathon. While Andrew was the one racing, they both have thoughts on the race, and the direction it is heading. Cleveland is a special city, and these dudes want the best race it can offer.

This week is the first of three race recaps coming. Andrew finally got to take part in a big city road race again, and Adam regrets missing out and oversleeping his alarm to spectate.

This week the boys discuss different kinds of uncertainty. As Adam battles injury the week of his race he’s trained for, and Andrew looks beyond training to run faster, there are different kinds of questions we ask ourselves as runners. The answers are never easy to find, or concrete.
