A 14:13 5k for Alex, Alexis Chooses Her 5k Race Pace

On Episode 18 of For Better or For Worse, Alex and Alexis kick things off with the ultimate runner's hypothetical: 300 meters from the finish line, in the lead, and your body betrays you... do you hold the line or take the L?

Then it's training-update time: Alex breaks down his Yorkville 5K (14:13, just off the podium) and gets brutally honest about whether his competitiveness has turned into a problem, while Alexis talks through her hardest training week yet and locks in an official 5K goal pace as race day gets close.

We close out with a deep dive into Keeley Hodgkinson's head-to-toe 3D-printed Nike speed suit at Aflos London: is it fashion, is it "technological doping," and should it even be legal? Plus a listener question about how (and whether) to combine a honeymoon with a race-cation.
