This week in running updates, we break down performances from the Armed Forces Half-Marathon, where Ross secured 11th overall and 2nd in his age group—running to honor those who serve. We also celebrate stellar results from the Spence Mountain Festivities, with Annie taking first female in the half-marathon and Katie dominating the 50K. Plus, we spotlight Logan and Kyler’s epic finish at the Silver State 50-miler. But today’s episode goes beyond race-day triumphs—we welcome our special guest, Shawna Batham, an experienced race director, ultra-runner, and key community leader for Fleet Feet Chico. Shawna has spent over a decade shaping local races like the Bidwell Classic and Fall Classic, making an impact both behind the scenes and at the finish line. She shares insights into race planning, from route selection to navigating city logistics, and reflects on the evolving running scene in Chico. We’re recording this around Global Running Day, so we also dive into Fleet Feet’s efforts to strengthen community engagement through fun events like café and pub runs. Plus, we answer listener mailbag questions—from unusual items found during runs (golf ball, anyone?) to local road conditions. Stay tuned for Petar’s rapid-fire questions, a thought-provoking segment inspired by his latest read, and a sneak peek into upcoming Fleet Feet training programs. As always, we invite you to share your own race experiences and keep the conversation going. Listen now wherever you get your podcasts!","meta_description":"Lace up and join us for another exciting episode of Pod on the Run!
