17: Maple Syrup and Marathon Splits: Zach Shrull on his Debut at the Vermont City Marathon

🍁This week, tap in for a special race debrief from this past weekend’s Vermont City Marathon. We’re joined by our friend and fellow marathon debutant Zach Shrull, who finished in an impressive 3:17:07, and managed a negative split. In this episode, Francis and Zach both take a good hard look at all their life decisions over the last 6 months: specifically, we unpack their first training cycles, reflect on their race-day experiences, and look ahead to the possibility of more races to come. Whether you're training for your first marathon or you're just here for the chaos, there’s something in this one for you.
