Rob talks Running
Welcome to the podcast. I’m Rob Watson, an ex-pro marathoner with a 2:13:29 personal best (pre-super shoes), 11th place finisher at the 2013 Boston Marathon, and 20th at the World Championships in Moscow that same year. Nowadays, I’m a coach with Mile2Marathon and generally just a big running nerd.
On this show, we dive into all things running, with the occasional detour into cycling and triathlons. It’s a lighthearted, fun take on the sport we love, so sit back, relax, and let’s talk running.

13. Chicago marathon past & future, rob's new side hustle, Iron, running as a dating app and Shannon's lovely little taper week.
This week on the podcast I start by reflecting on my go at Chicago back in 2015, then we bring in Shanimal to chat about our training weeks- and her taper. We touch upon my new side hustle, the importance or Iron supplementation, running clubs as dating apps and the general shenanigans of tapering. Enjoy!
