Minnesota Distance Elite's Cailie Hughes has made her mark on the shorter distances, competing in both the 5,000m and 10,000m at USA Nationals, where she finished fourth in the 10,000m. A former All-American at Iowa State and now a professional runner for Puma, Cailie recently won the City of Lakes Half Marathon and is ready to take on a new challenge, the New York City Marathon! Cailie joins Carrie to discuss why she's ready to make the jump to the marathon, why the timing and race felt right, and how having familiar faces on the course could benefit her debut. She also shares the positive mindset behind her ambitious goals for the marathon, why the course excites her and what she's most looking forward to as she takes on 26.2 miles for the first time. Running has always been a part of Cailie's life, from racing around Kansas as a child with her father as her coach to meeting her husband through the sport. But when she's not training or racing, she knows how to slow down and enjoy time with family. Get to know Cailie as she prepares for the biggest race of her career so far!
Olympian and Minnesota native Dakotah Popehn just had a great day at the Chicago Marathon where she crossed the finish line with a new PR and finished as the second American! Fresh off the race, Dakotah joins Carrie to break down her marathon experience, from the moments when everything clicked and the points when she had to dig deep. With years of training and racing behind her, Dakotah also reflects on how her approach to training has evolved, how the strong performances of American women in distance running have inspired her, and what excites her most about the future of the sport. But Dakotah is much more than a fast runner. She's also an author and gives us the inside scoop on her upcoming book, You Think This Hurts?, coming out in June. Dakotah has plenty to celebrate and even more to look forward to!
Over the last few years, HOKA NAZ Elite athlete Adrian Wildschutt has established himself as one of the best distance runners in the world.

Now, Adrian is taking on a new challenge: the marathon at the Chicago Marathon. Adrian joins Carrie to talk about why he chose Chicago for his marathon debut, how his training has gone, and what he's hoping to accomplish on race day. They also look back at his NYC Half victory and discuss why that performance may have been a sign of what's to come in Chicago. Adrian shares his journey from growing up in Ceres, South Africa, to his successful collegiate career at Coastal Carolina and Florida State University, and his rise to the world stage. He also opens up about the mindset that has helped him find success, his goals beyond Chicago, and his upcoming autobiography set to be released in October. From his roots in South Africa to the biggest stages in the sport, Adrian's story is one you won't want to miss.

Dimity McDowell has done it all. She's been a sports journalist, co-authored three books including her newest release "The 27th Mile", and co-founded Another Mother Runner, an inclusive community that has inspired and supported countless female runners. She's also a personal trainer and coach who has taken on major endurance events, including IRONMAN Coeur d'Alene and the Pikes Peak Ascent. But perhaps Dimity's greatest passion is helping women stay strong and keep moving forward on the roads, trails, and through life. In this live episode, recorded at Summit Brewing in Minnesota, nothing is off limits as Dimity and Carrie dive into her incredible journey. Dimity explains her relationship with running, facing adversity when a doctor told her to stop running, and the difficult process of eventually accepting that advice. She also opens up about why runners can become so attached to the sport, why stepping away can be incredibly difficult, and what happens when your identity has been closely tied to running for so long. Together, Carrie and Dimity explore the power of community, coping with life's biggest challenges, and finding new passions and purpose when life doesn't go according to plan.This episode is brought to you by Tailwind Nutrition.
