Description

This week on the Fartlek Running Podcast Show, Coach Blu is flying solo after his ADHD got the best of him and he completely spaced that he was supposed to record with Josh on Thursday night—turns out he was rocking out at a Counting Crows concert instead. No worries though, Blu took it like a champ and jumped on the mic to bring you a quick hit of running news and highlights you won't want to miss.  

Episode Highlights  
- 272-Mile Ultra Victory– A jaw-dropping ultra where a female runner not only finished strong but took the "overall win" against the entire field.  
- NYC Marathon History – A look back at the first female winners who paved the way for generations of marathoners in New York City.  
- Tragic Loss – Remembering the life and legacy of a 114 year old marathon runner and his untimely passing last month.  

No worries,  Coach Blu keeps the energy high, mixing a bit of humor with inspiring stories from the running world. Tune in for a short but powerful episode that proves sometimes the best runs—and podcasts—happen when plans go sideways.  

This episode is a perfect listen for your next easy run, recovery jog, or while reminiscing about the concerts you may or may not have forgotten you had tickets for.
