#250 250th Episode Mailbag Special! What's the Impact of 40+mm Stack Height Shoes? All-time Best Shoe Rotation? Worst Shoe Color EVER?

We've got a special mailbag episode for our 250th episode! We've put together tons of questions from long times friends of the podcast (Drew from Weartesters, Tina & Evan from Brooks, and more!) and from our listeners. Matt & David discuss pre-race rituals, post-run snacks, their worst shoe color, GOAT shoe rotations, and much more (shoes as ice cream?!). Want to hear your question on our next mailbag?
