#59 - Between Reps - Shout Out Chicago!

Fresh off Chicago Marathon weekend, Jacob and Rory are back in Flagstaff to break down the biggest performances, surprises, and takeaways from the race. In a special “Shout Out Chicago” episode, they discuss Vinny Mauri's aggressive race strategy, Clayton Young's incredible performance, Galen Rupp's American masters record, and the growing depth of American marathoning. They also share behind-the-scenes stories from pacing Sharon Lokedi and Dakotah Popehn, discuss the impact of the weather, and make a surprise phone call to Clayton Young. Plus, highlights from their first live show and how Chicago has fueled their motivation heading into Valencia and CIM.
