TRACKSMITH is a Boston-based running brand, who crafts performance apparel for training, racing and rest days. There’s some good insight in this episode and a little bit of breaking news at the very end.

My co-host for this episode is David Melly, the host of Run Your Mouth which is also on the CITIUS MAG Podcast Network. Thanks to everyone who submitted listener questions, we got to as many as we could in the time we had with Molly. Molly opens up about the two broken ribs she had and some of the mental struggles coming off the Games. We touch on Molly’s run in Sapporo and New York City but also get some more details on the less-than-ideal build-up that somehow led to this incredible performance. Earns a bronze medal at the Olympics and now breaks a record at the New York City Marathon. Runs a PR and places high in London amid the pandemic. Molly is now four for four in her marathons. The race was won by Olympic champion Peres Jepchirchir of Kenya in 2:22:39. The previous record was 2:25:53 set by Kara Goucher in 2008.

This past weekend, she ran 2:24:42 and finished fourth overall. We welcome back Molly Seidel to the podcast and I get to introduce her as the 2021 Olympic bronze medalist in the marathon and also now the fastest American woman to ever run the New York City Marathon. I am so excited about how New York went because there were so many times throughout the build-up where we didn’t even know if I was going to make it to the line.' 'Despite everything, somehow this race turned out so much better than I could’ve imagined.
