| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the running public with Brack and Crocker and Kirk DeWint. |
| 0:12.4 | It's Tuesday, folks, and you know what that means, Training Tuesday. |
| 0:15.7 | We are going to take every rabbit hole, follow tangents, use useless metaphors, get lost in the weeds. |
| 0:22.4 | This is Training Tuesday. |
| 0:32.9 | When you're ready to take your training or racing to the next level, go to the running public.com. |
| 0:38.5 | We have both monthly subscription training plans, $1999 a month, and Bracken and I both offer one-on-one customized coaching. |
| 0:47.3 | Again, go to the running public.com and check out our offerings. |
