We're doing a Q+A with authorโ€ช@Brad.Stulbergโ€ฌ on an upcoming Marathon Handbook podcast episode!

His book, The Way of Excellence, has been cited by Sabastian Sawe's team - as well as Eliud Kipchoge - for guiding their run training.

Brad's work discusses how we can all use excellence in our own training and lives, whether you're a competitive runner or recreational level.

If you've got a question for Brad, leave it below or email it to podcast@marathonhandbook.com !

๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ’ธ The Boston Marathon, held annually on Patriotsโ€™ Day, is more than just a historic event in the running worldโ€”it is a key economic driver for Boston and the surrounding region.

The 2024 edition of the race, which took place on April 15, attracted thousands of runners and spectators from around the world and generated significant economic benefits for the city.

This yearโ€™s marathon once again demonstrated the profound economic impact that the event has on Boston, with hundreds of millions of dollars flowing into the local economy.
