Episode 225: How She Did It-Suzanne Mishkin’s BQ Journey

After Julie and a special guest discuss life outside of running, we welcomed longtime Run Farther & Faster runner, Suzanne Mishkin, who shares her decade-long journey from newly minted marathoner to Boston qualifier. Suzanne shares how she managed her disappointment after learning that she was not accepted into the 2025 race, how she stays motivated to train during cold Chicago winters, and how she approaches injury and setbacks.

This is Part 1 of a three-part series featuring runners who, like Suzanne, achieved a BQ without a Boston 2025 acceptance. In addition to being a runner. Suzanne is a mom of three active boys and a principal. We loved this conversation!
