Race Recap: Carlsbad 5000 & Celebrating 1 Year Pod-aversary!

In this special anniversary episode, we're celebrating TWO milestones: one year of the podcast AND one year back to running after injury! Join Coach Val for a detailed recap of the 2024 Carlsbad 5000 race experience, including:

• Race day preparation and morning routine


• Pacing strategy (planned vs. actual)


• The dreaded 2.5 mile wall and finishing strong


• Post-race experiences and lessons learned

Plus, a look back at our podcast journey that began on April 11th, 2024, and an update on marathon training with 3 months to go. We'll also preview what's coming next, including the La Jolla Half Marathon on May 17th!

Thank you for supporting the podcast through this incredible first year!
