Summary

I'm excited to bring it to you today's chat from the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon's Women's Training Group. After the pandemic, Canada Running Series and ASICS Canada set out to address, and work to find solutions to, the considerable gap between the number of women and the number of men running marathons. In 2024, they launched the Women's Training Group to support and empower more women to chase big goals on race day. Last year, Heather Garner and I followed Mandy and Joan on their inspiring journey to the finish line. This year, we're back with two new runners—our "Positive Patties"— Candice Combdon and Bianca Magdangal, who are pushing toward their own start lines. Whether you're training for the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon, another fall race, or just love the grit and grind of big mileage, this conversation is packed with honesty, smart strategies, and all the feels of marathon training.
