4 Feet Running

Nik and Dan

She's Nik: a marathon runner who's finished her seventh 26.2-miler. He's Dan: a runner who started with the C25K program and has finished his fourth half-marathon. Every week, they record themselves on a short run somewhere in New England (mostly), talk about their training, play some music, and have a few laughs.

  • 4 Feet Running - Mojo Loco and 2010 review Part 2
    This is part 2 of a very special episode of 4 Feet Running with Nik and Dan! Use this one for a long run, folks, because it's gonna take a while. In this episode:

    - Nik and Dan drive from St. Augustine, Florida, to infinity and beyond

    - Infinity and beyond is located at Kennedy Space Center, apparently

    - They reflect on the great time they had at the Mojo Loco 50-mile-ish relay in December

    - Dan gets fed up with back-of-the-pack gripes and tries to run faster

    - Nik overcomes her various dietary quirks at the Philadelphia Marathon

    - A vague at their plans and goals for 2011, mostly vague because they're only sort of sure what they are at the moment

    - Nik gets indoctrinated into The Cult of Crossfit

    - Speaking of cults, they see an Amish person (don't worry, Amish people won't see this because it's on a computer)

    - Apologies for the sound quality -- moving cars are noisy to record in

    Thanks for listening, and enjoy!
