I loved the book talk (as an published author who has been the recipient of reviews criticizing my books for too much cursing)! I have a book recommendation for Katelyn! Please don't start with Gravity's Rainbow if you want to get back to serious reading. Highly recommended: Jenny Tough's book Solo, about the author's journey running across six continents, solo and unsupported. As well as a great travelogue/running adventure memoir, it's very thought-provoking about how women are treated when they embark upon challenging athletic feats alone. Another favorite running book is Duel in the Sun, about the historic Boston Marathon face-off between Alberto Salazar and Dick Beardsley. As a Bostonian, I think Katelyn might like that one as well! I ran 2 marathons last year, 1 more than I resolved to run, and promptly entered a spring marathon (April 2025), despite hating winter. It is not yet January 1st, and I am already regretting that resolution.
Great podcast! Thanks
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays
Great podcast guys! I'm currently following one of the marathon handbook training plan the sub 3:30 marathon. 😊

Thank you for the recommendations! I'll put them at the top of my list!
