Beer Miles & Belly Bands: A Very Peachtree Roadrace Recap
In this fun and honest episode, we coaches recap this year’s Peachtree Road Race—including Coach Erin running while pregnant, racing in Atlanta heat, and Jonathan’s legendary beer-per-mile strategy. We dive deep into shifting expectations, what it means to race “for fun,” and how our mindsets have changed over time with a decade of running.
What you will hear:
- What it’s really like to run the world’s largest 10K while pregnant
- Why Peachtree is a party… and also hot, humid chaos
- How Jonathan drank 8 beers in 6 miles (yes, really)
- What mature athletes understand about race-day expectations
- Letting go of PR pressure and embracing joy in running
- How social media and Strava shape our self-worth as runners
- The power of running in community and racing just for fun
