Karen and Rachel jump on the mics for the first time since being recognized for this podcast while on a run on Chicago's Lakefront. How has fame changed them?
In this episode, we discuss:
– Karen's experience at the Prefontaine Classic and her first trip to Eugene
– An Instagram comment section controversy on the pronunciation of "Oregon"
– Steve Prefontaine was a short king but a legend and we were all obsessed in high school
– Rachel's deep dive on how the NCAA 10,000m regional races played out and whether we should just call the races after 8K – See the charts here.
+ A spirited discussion on the best Taylor Swift songs to play while on a run
