S2E14: 5K vs. Half vs. Marathon: The Great Race Distance Debate

Three hosts. Three race distances. Only one can be the best. Alex, Jen and Abbie 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 host makes a case built on training time, mental toughness, recovery, strength training and even heart health. One of them brings research nobody saw coming. Along the way they 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 at practically.fit or email alex@practically.fit (mailto:alex@practically.fit) .
