Getting Chicked
🎃 Running Themed Costumes, Rachel's Injury Comeback, Karen's Birthday Celebrations, Finding Your People + How Getting Chicked Started
In today's episode, Rachel brings us the latest from her injury comeback, including an encouraging MRI update, what her return to training might look like, and her spring race plans. Meanwhile, Karen shares about gearing up for the Indy Half, getting to race alongside her friends, and chasing a quick time.
The Chicks also chat about unexpected training setbacks, the mental side of returning to running, and the frustration of trying to stay patient when your body isn’t quite ready to do what you want it to do. They also get into the importance of having an identity outside of running, finding the right people to surround yourself with, and the importance of sharing the highs and lows of training with others.
Karen also recaps her birthday celebrations, the two debate whether a fancy steakhouse dinner is worth the hype, and brainstorm running themed Halloween costumes.
Plus: How did Karen and Rachel meet, how Megan became part of the crew, and what inspired the three of them to start the podcast?
