192 | Atreyu Race Model, The $500 Adidas Evo 1, Meg's Mild Injury, Canadian Booze
Sorry to those who aren't baseball fans, but the Orioles made the playoffs, so we take some time to acknowledge the only real birds that exist in the world. Then we get into the usual randomness and try and figure out if Thomas got placebo drunk at a Guns 'n' Roses concert in 1992. Also, Meg has a minor setback three weeks out from Chicago. In shoe talk, we discuss the $500 Adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 1 and, on the opposite side of the spectrum, the $120 carbon-plated Atreyu Race Model.Get our thoughts on the Adidas Evo 1: https://believeintherun.com/adidas-adizero-adios-pro-evo-1/Read our review of the Atreyu Race Model: https://believeintherun.com/shoe-reviews/atreyu-race-model-review/

191 | Josh Kerr, Brooks Beast Elite
He won the 5th Avenue Mile two weeks after he took down Jakob Ingebrigtsen on the sport's biggest stage, outkicking him en route to a world title in the 1500m. And now he's a guest on the greatest podcast in history of the universe. So yeah, you could say it's been a whirlwind of a month for Brooks elite Josh Kerr. We had a lot of fun talking to him about running, winning, and eating to much fast food in America. Follow Josh on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshhkerr

190 | New Balance 1080v13, 5th Avenue Mile Recap, & Mike the Headless Chicken
The gang took the actual train to NYC to run the New Balance and New York Road Runners 5th Avenue Mile. We talk about the worst seat on a train, Thomas's race day regrets, and Robbe making questionable decisions about stuff found on the ground (again). We also cover the legendary life of Mike the Headless Chicken, which is marginally more entertaining than our conversation about the New Balance 1080v13, which features some major upgrades.

What's going on behind the scenes of the Adidas Adizero podium push over the last few years? That's what we ask Robbie Paterson, Senior Manager of Footwear Development in the Adizero Elite Racing line.

186 | Adidas Prime X 2 Strung, Stop Signs, Stressies, Icy Pop Juice, Magnet Fishing
We get to talking about the Adidas Prime X Strung 2 (eventually), but first, there's bigger fish to fry, like calling out runners running stop signs (even though we do it all the time), Thomas's flirtation with a stress fracture, high fructose frozen popsicle fun, and whether or not metal detecting is cool or ever has been. Real important stuff for runners.
