Three hosts. Three race distances. Only one can be the best.
On this episode, Jen, Abbie and I face off in the ultimate running debate: the 5K vs. the half marathon vs. the marathon. Which race distance is really best for runners over 40? Each of us makes our case built on training time, mental toughness, recovery, strength training and even heart health. And yeah, maybe I brought some research to the debate, even though I wasn't supposed to.
Along the way, we share how they push through the hardest miles, a hot and humid race-day story that went sideways, and a bit of news that might pull one host back to the starting line.
Who made the strongest case? Listen in, then tell us your favorite distance in the comments, or shoot us an email at alex@practically.fit.
