2019 New York City Marathon Preview + Camille Herron and Rojo Hobby Jogging Love

4 years ago

Plus we discuss the new NCAA sponsorship rules

It's New York City Marathon week and we break down the 2019 TCS New York City Marathon and its strong but not deep fields. How will the Americans do? Plus we praise Camille Herron for her new 24 hour world record, have a little shoe talk, and show how little we know about the new NCAA amateur rules.

We want some intro music for the podcast. If you've got ideas email us wejo@letsrun.com

We're also looking for a bar on 1st Ave to watch the 1st part of the marathon. Email us wejo@letsrun.com if you have ideas.
