Season 2 Episode 2 of the Running for Beginners podcast from the 22resolutionists, hosted by me Mike Fleming.

“Don’t just run hard – run smart.”

Whether you’re heading into your first half marathon or aiming to beat your full marathon PR, there’s one thing many runners overlook: race strategy. And at the heart of that strategy? Pacing.

In this month’s episode of the Running for Beginners podcast, I sat down with Crystal and Jeff Wehling, a husband-and-wife team who pace races together all over the region. Their job on race day? Keep runners calm, consistent, and crossing the finish line feeling strong.
