0:00.0	This episode of The Allie on the Run show is brought to you by New Balance. Go to newbalance.com
0:06.3	slash running to check out all of New Balance's latest releases for the season, including the Rebel V4
0:13.6	in all kinds of gorgeous new springy colors.
0:24.3	Welcome to the Allie on the Run show.
0:30.2	I'm your host, Allie Fellar, and this is the week after Valentine's Day.
0:32.8	The week after, love on the run.
0:38.7	It was during this week in 2022 that I thought it would be fun to offer an antidote to love on the run week. After a week of sweet and sappy love stories that you know I love, I wanted to

1:42.6	She ended up having to drop out of the race around
1:44.8	mile 16, and she has dealt with a series of frustrating injuries and setbacks ever since.
1:51.0	Right now, Molly is working her way back to full health and fitness, with her mental health
1:55.9	being front and center. Case in point, a nice, long, enjoyable social media break. It was really nice to catch
2:03.8	up with Molly a bit after definitely missing her more public updates. So, this conversation is
2:09.6	mostly just that. It is a light, chit-chatty conversation that touches on running,
