How to Select the Right Running Shoes in 2024, Drama at the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials, and the Super Bowl of Ultras!

Marathon Handbook Podcast

On this week's pod, editors Alex Cyr, Katelyn Tocci and Michael Doyle break down all the excitement and serious drama from the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials in Eugene, Oregon. Then, they provide a primer and preview of the Western States 100, which is one of the oldest and most celebrated ultras in the world. And in the main segment of the pod, they chat all about the state of running shoes in 2024: what to buy, how many shoes do you really need to train for a goal race, and which super shoes are the best for running a PR.
