Gaining Entry to Big-Name Marathons

Anyone with the goal to run a marathon, especially a renowned one like New York City, London, or Chicago, will be intrigued and enlightened by this episode. The guests, RaceRaves founders Katie Ho and Mike Sohaskey, talk with hosts (+ multi-time marathoners) Sarah Bowen Shea and Tish Hamilton about:
-the “scarcity mindset” of marathon entries; 
-the various factors adding to the popularity of big marathons; 
-running the Abbott World Marathon Majors; 
-which marathon is under consideration as the 7th Major; and, 
-advice on completing a marathon in all 50 states. 
 
Before the RaceRaves duo joins around 10:56, Tish tells of the sure-to-be-epic hiking adventure she’s embarking on.
