Summary
"If we get to the end of my life, and I look back and say the regrets that I have, I know one of them would be, 'You never ran the New York City Marathon.' Not a marathon. I don’t want to run a marathon. I want to run the New York City Marathon."
Caroline Moss has a dream: to run the New York City Marathon. As a New Yorker, it's her favorite day of the year. The catch: Caroline isn't a runner. Yet. In this new series, we're following author, creator, and professional shopper Caroline Moss as she embarks on a quest to start running, and, sometime in the next few years, run the race of her dreams.
In this episode, we're getting to know Caroline — a lifelong theater kid turned digital media genius turned aspiring marathoner.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Allie on the Run show. I'm your host, Allie Fellar, and this is where I talk |
| 0:09.2 | with people who are doing exciting things on the run and beyond. From professional athletes and |
| 0:14.6 | celebrity runners to the everyday, amateur, and back of the pack runner, we are here to celebrate |
| 0:19.8 | everyone and anyone who enjoys a life |
| 0:22.4 | on the run. Whether you find yourself running towards something big or away from something that has |
| 0:27.5 | been holding you back, I am here to hold your hand and help you pick up the pace. |
| 0:32.7 | Today's episode is something new, something that I hope is the start of something new, which, hey, |
| 0:38.8 | shout out Troy and Gabriella, high school musical forever, and musicals, something today's guest |
| 0:44.7 | lives for. My guest today is Caroline Moss, and as you can tell from the title of this episode, |
| 0:51.2 | Caroline Moss wants to run a marathon. Caroline is many things. She's an author, |
| 0:56.5 | a podcast host, a journalist, a creator, but Runner has never been one of those things. |

| 1:07.5 | Last year, she planned a vacation around Marathon Sunday, ensuring she would be in her hometown |
| 1:12.4 | on the first Sunday of November. She loves cheering for this race. And she's always had a dream to run it |
| 1:19.9 | herself. Caroline and I met through, of course, the internet. Social media brought us together in a |
| 1:25.6 | million different ways. And I think once this conversation |
| 1:27.9 | gets rolling, you'll see just how much we have in common and why we hit it off immediately. |
| 1:33.7 | And as a self-proclaimed running cheerleader, I am obviously all for Caroline's dream and goal |
| 1:40.4 | to one day run the New York City Marathon. Will it be this year? Maybe. Next year? |
| 1:46.0 | Maybe. Caroline's not sure, but she is ready to get started. She is a total beginner and how |
| 1:52.3 | exciting is that. She's got the shoes, the apps, the socks, and the watch. Now it is time for her |
