ABOUT THIS EPISODE
For episode 135, the PR Project crew is back on the mic to tackle some of the most highly debated topics in the running community! We kick things off with Tommie's rough return to marathon workouts and discuss how to properly approach your training when you are early in a new block. We also laugh about Tommie's hilarious social media "Unc moment," Gary's competitive edge wearing spikes on the track, and the crew's excitement about Abdul El-Sayed following the podcast on Instagram.
Then, Run Culture Court is officially in session! We dive into the controversial topic of men's-only run clubs, the toxic habit of stalking someone's Strava for elapsed time versus moving time, and whether there is ever a legitimate reason to bandit a race. We also debate the unwritten rules of drafting off a stranger's workout without telling them. Finally, our homie Complex Carbs drops in for a full shoe review of the highly anticipated R.A.D. UFO, and we wrap up with a well-deserved shoutout to Sid from PYNRS!
