In Chicago, Phil spent four hours grooming with otters at the aquarium and Josh's "bathroom routine was bangin'," but how did the Doctor and the Bad Boy race? We hear about their taper week, marathon, and training reflections in the final installment of our Chicago Marathon series.

Thanks to Columbus Running Company and OOFOS for making the Windy City Chronicles possible!

Josh and the Bad Boy return to take you through their last big week of training. It was a roller coaster ride of illness, rolled ankles, and a hurricane. Special guest Miles Bryan joins us as well. He shares his sub-3 Chicago training and racing plan. We conclude the episode with a series of questions/answers about tapering, fueling, and race execution. Good luck to the boys in Chicago!
