-how she runs solo for shorter runs;
-the logistics for Achilles guides on long training runs + races;
-how SignUp Genius (!) factors into her training schedule;
-how she’s still processing a race DNF from last month; and,
-why the gnarly, hot AF Badwater 135 is her dream race.
In the intro, the hosts compare notes from recent family reunions. The guest joins the show around 9:56.
