Description

In this fun and honest episode, we coaches recap this year’s Peachtree Road Race—including Coach Erin running while pregnant, racing in Atlanta heat, and Jonathan’s legendary beer-per-mile strategy. We dive deep into shifting expectations, what it means to race “for fun,” and how our mindsets have changed over time with a decade of running.

What you will hear:

• What it’s really like to run the world’s largest 10K while pregnant
• Why Peachtree is a party… and also hot, humid chaos
• How Jonathan drank 8 beers in 6 miles (yes, really)
• What mature athletes understand about race-day expectations
• Letting go of PR pressure and embracing joy in running
• How social media and Strava shape our self-worth as runners
• The power of running in community and racing just for fun
