0:00.0	This episode of The Alley on the Run Show is brought to you by New York Roadrunners.
0:08.7	Welcome to The Alley on the Run Show.
0:10.6	I'm your host, Alley Feller, and I am coming off the best week of my life.
0:15.6	It's no secret that I'm the TCS New York City Marathon's number one fan,
0:19.6	and I'm sure I'm one of many. It's the best race, the best week, the best celebration in the world.
0:26.8	And there are so many ways to be involved in the TCS New York City Marathon beyond running it.
0:31.7	Running those 26.2 miles is of course pretty incredible, but you can cheer, you can volunteer,
0:37.6	you can watch the broadcast on TV, and you can come to so many of the race week events leading up
0:43.9	to the big day. This year I had a jam-packed race week schedule. I was able to do so many fun things,
0:50.2	including MCing a team for Kids event at the Expo, announcing the NIRR run with champions,
0:55.9	attending the night of champions, running the Abbott-Dash to the finish line, 5k,
1:00.1	and getting a new 5k PR. And I got to be an announcer at the finish line,
1:05.2	dreams just coming true everywhere. And I got to do this. I hosted a live recording of The Alley
1:11.7	on the Run Show at the New York Roadrunners Run Center right in the heart of Manhattan,
1:15.9	just steps away from the iconic marathon finish line. I was joined by an amazing lineup of women
1:21.7	who are changing not just the running landscape, but also changing the world. So I hope you
1:26.9	enjoy this conversation about why it's an exciting time for women's running, including some very
1:31.7	honest talk about where we still have to go and what we have to do to make running as inclusive
1:36.5	as possible. Please enjoy this conversation with Lauren Fleshman, Mary Wittenberg, Alison DeZer,
1:43.9	Lindsey Kraus, and Jen Aitor.
2:13.9	Thank you for coming out. I'm talking too much already. I'm going to get out of here.
2:25.2	But let me introduce you to our host for the day. You know her from Alley on the Run podcast.
