We never did try toad in the hole or Yorkshire pudding while we were in England, but we did finally meet Chris Ford (founder of UK-based run group Fordy Runs) at our London shakeout run with Tracksmith. We have a great time talking about what it takes to start a running group, the community of runners he's brought together, how he got into running, and of course– a bunch of shoe and gear talk.

Absolute madness is the only way to describe this past weekend. From the shakeout run with New Balance (and you) to our very hot yet very awesome day running the New York City Marathon, we recap it all in this episode of The Drop. Plus, you get a special appearance from Wide Foot Jarrett (who is kind of the guest today). Enjoy and thanks again to all of you who came to the run and showed why this community is so special.

The second most famous runner we've ever interviewed (I mean, who can top Kipchoge?), Erin Azar is the running queen of Tiktok and Insta reels. Probably because she's funny as hell and puts out the most relatable running content that we've all experienced at some time in our run journeys. We talk about how she got started, where she's going, and the wild world of being a social media star.

Crazy and weird is the name of the game around here, so it was only appropriate that we asked Mike Wardian to come into the studio for this episode of the show. Mike is an ultrarunner sponsored by Hoka and Coros, who recently ran across the United States over 60 days. He also holds the world record for the fastest average time in the 7 marathons/7 continents/7 days challenge. This was such a great conversation about running, staying healthy, nutrition, and more.
