@Audra Hahle Yes it’s so crucial to offset the taste of everything you were eating/drinking during the race 😝
Brand spankin' new Ask A Marathoner tab!
Hello friends! For this tab, I plan to collect all the qs and advice I've gotten on the show and compiling it here in a few different posts. Eventually, I would love to do a monthly call here where we can bounce ideas off of each other! Aside from that - please feel free to post any and every marathon question you have here. We have 15+ mentors in this group that would love to answer your questions, myself included! Judgement free zone :) Ask away!

@Audra Hahle I think your plan to invest in 1-1 training with Taylor is an excellent one! And I’ll also throw this out there in case it helps in the future: I am someone who doesn’t have a budget for 1-1 coaching or a custom plan, but I’ve had a really good experience with the generic training plans from Running Explained. They are written by a coach (Elisabeth Scott/Nick Klastava) and there are various distances and levels to choose from. The cost is affordable and they are high quality— I’ve improved enormously as a runner as a result of using them 😊 Wishing you the best!! You’ve totally got this 💪🏻

Thursday check-in!
No prompt today - just a simple “how are yall doing?!” What’s hard right now? How’s training going? What can we support you with? 👇

On day 11 of training for my 2nd marathon! We’ve been dealing with record rainfall and smoke from wildfires in Alberta, so we deeply appreciate every good weather day we can train outside. Remaining steadfast in the face of obstacles is the name of the game!

Happy Monday! Some welcomes + updates :)
Howdy MFM crew! 🤠 Happy Monday :) First off - a MASSIVE welcome to our newest members! We're so stoked you're here, tell us a little bit about yourself in comments! @Shelby Herban @Melissa Beilfuss @Amy Artyomenko @Ashley Blankenship @Kaitlin Ketcham @Ryan Czar @Bobby SIsock Second - couple updates based on ya'lls feedback! - Added the "Ask a Marathoner Tab" and moved some of the questions we've gotten so far in there. I'll be adding a FAQ post both from questions I get on the show and ones we've gotten here from the community. The goal is to make it a judgement free zone to ask the group of experienced runners we have here, so ask away! - Added a separate "weekly posts" section to keep the gen discussion page a little less crowded, and give @Kristine Owen Wood a place for her polls so you never miss one :) Thanks for being here! Go crush whatever goals you have this week!
