Dave McGillivray

How come you're not running right now?
No, seriously, grab some headphones and go for a run while you listen.

We welcome legendary race director Dave McGillivray, who tells us all about how he conducts the Boston Marathon. Dave also takes us back in time to describe about how the Boston Marathon has changed over the years, how he organized a marathon at Fenway Park, what inspired him to run across the country as a young man, and how he helped to pioneer the concept of running to fundraise for a cause. Dave also shares how a recent health scare made him rethink certain lifestyle habits and what led him to have serious surgery. He also shares his wisdom on tackling injuries and looking for their underlying cause. Plus, his strong 'stache game!

Chaugust Check In Week 2

We are in week 2 of Chaugust and time to check in on our progress. Peter is not eating bread but is eating 31 different flavors of ice cream while completing his 5k a day. Bryan forgot his big book about the Constitution to read while on vacation but is making up for it by getting all his runs in. And both admit that the journaling needs to stay a priority, as it is the secret to a successful Chaugust. Plus messages and voice memoooooos from Judy, Evan, and of course, Mary from Maine.
