Our new podcast episode is here, and this week we discuss whether it's possible to race two marathons just 15 weeks apart, how much running is appropriate for kids, and whether breaks during your long run actually affect the training benefit.
On the training side, we’re shaking up your weekend mileage with our best long-run variations, sharing ways to recover faster from marathon training, and exploring how to help your kids fall in love with running.
And in the news, Chicago is going BIG with a record-setting marathon field, Berlin adds more firepower to its elite lineup, Brooks and On make business headlines, Wahoo puts new running features behind a paywall, plus we’ve got all the action from Day 2 of the European Championships—and the wild story of a marathoner who wore 125 shirts at once.
This week, Katelyn, Michael, and Alex tackle your biggest training questions: Can you recover, rebuild, and race another marathon just 15 weeks later? How much training is safe and appropriate for kids who want to become better runners?
Plus, can you develop speed while building endurance? And does stopping during a long run—even just to change your shoes—take away from the training effect?
You wouldn't race in stiff plastic clogs — so why run on clunky, off-the-shelf insoles?

You scan your feet at home with your iPhone in under five minutes, a sports podiatry lab designs them, and they're built from scratch in California and shipped straight to your door. No clinic markup, either.
