260 | Letty Lundquist from Marathon Journal | Co-host sub-in Jaye Duncan

<p>We are thrilled to welcome back <a href="https://www.instagram.com/runningpodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Letty Lundquist</a> who has recently started a new venture called "Marathon Journal". We explore how she’s turning marathon news into a standalone media brand. The conversation covers major race headlines, including London’s 2027 two-day experiment, Chicago’s refill stations, and New York’s Nine Plus One overhaul, and more. This is a segment that we hope to bring to you monthly going forward.</p><p>Be sure to follow Letty's Marathon Journal on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/marathonjournal_/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">HERE</a></p><p>Check out Marathon Journal Website <a href="https://marathonjournal.com/?utm_source=ig&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_content=link_in_bio&amp;fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAcGRvZgJzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA85MzY2MTk3NDMzOTI0NTkAAafj0gHMpcPTwBKsw3xJ3N0q0upYs0LGxeEO-vOQ9RulpUDvjWCYa9HEYX3epw_aem_fJzwDU-QYlHMfPfpiieC2A" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">HERE</a></p><p>We open the episode with a different co-host as Six Star Erika is away for a wedding in California.
