And now your host, Lucas Felton.

Well, hello fellow runners and those of you that are training for marathons,

thanks for joining me for the special edition of our podcast and this interview.

I'm your host for today Jeff Godette and I'm here with Evelyn of the Carbstain blog to talk about

race-net attrition. Now we're not going to we're not doing in this podcast as recommending one
