Sole Sisters - NYE Resolutions & The McCarrathon

It's 2026 and the sisters are back! Today, hosts Justine and Kylie interview Camille Malmquist, the captain of the Mikkeller Running Club (MRC) Reno, to discuss the intersection of fitness, community, and New Year’s resolutions. Camille recounts her journey from a casual runner in Paris to establishing a local chapter in Nevada, emphasizing how the club’s socially-oriented "no drop" philosophy fosters inclusivity for all skill levels. The conversation highlights the McCarathon, an unofficial "underground" marathon around Reno’s McCarran Boulevard, which began as a personal training run and evolved into a major annual group event. Beyond race logistics, the speakers explore motivational strategies, such as using phone screen time statistics to set weekly mileage goals and the importance of high-quality gear like moisture-wicking socks. They finish it off with personal reflections on safety, including encounters with wildlife and the psychological benefits of group support during ultra-marathons.
