About this episode
Meg may or may not have set up a campsite in Harbor East in the hopes of catching a Taylor Swift sighting as she comes into town to see her Travvy lose to Lamar and the rest of the Ravens. We also cover our own running (the road to Boston begins now, or something), Thomas listening to the sounds of the Rainforest Cafe through a sleep mask, and whether or not we could survive an Andes plane crash (we couldn't). We also talk about the Diadora Gara Carbon, a surprisingly great carbon-plated race day shoe coming at the end of February. This is episode is sponsored by LMNT. We use it to rehydrate after all our hard efforts and it is hands down the best hydration and recovery mix out there. We're super excited about the new LMNT Chocolate Medley, featuring Chocolate Mint, Chocolate Chai, and Chocolate Raspberry, designed to be enjoyed hot or swirled into your favorite recipes. Our listeners can get a free LMNT sample pack with the purchase of any order.
