In this Bonus Episode! I talk with Jess McClain, a professional marathoner for Brooks. She recently raced in the USATF Half Marathon Championships, which was her half marathon debut (kinda*). She finished 4th, which made her the 1st alternate for Team USA at the World Road Championships to be raced later this year. 0:00 intro2:11 what shoes did she run in today2:41 Jess's shoe rotation3:24 Launch 11 vs Hyperion4:39 debut half marathon5:11 rock n roll half marathon6:26 racing incognito7:48 atlanta half marathon build9:18 race plan for atlanta12:26 was the cold a factor at the start line14:30 very roomy start line15:10 fast start16:45 chasing an American Record Holder18:48 finishing 4th 20:50 finish line 22:56 having fun25:10 hyperion elite 4pb vs 526:51 why sign with brooks twice?32:18 half marathon vs 10k or full mara33:13 goals for The Ten34:19 goals for boston36:27 des linden38:26 team McClain
