    It is true; we just completed a fun race weekend with the Runcation Nation at the Gasparilla Distance Classic in Tampa, but we have to talk about Dana’s hometown for one more week on the show because this week, we are lucky enough to chat with Meb Keflezighi about his inaugural race coming up in May, the Run with Meb!

    EAT & DRINK

    Wood Fired is a pizza and wine bar near the University of South Florida in Tampa. It is a small and quaint place that is huge in flavor! We had salads, appetizers, and pizza that were so flavorful! We recommend this place if you are scouting colleges or heading to Busch Gardens in Tampa. In addition, there are local craft beers on tap and a wide range of wines on the menu, from less expensive to higher-end choices. We went with a glass of house wine, and it was delicious.

    Catullo’s is where we decided to do our carb-loading before the half marathon. Yes, we did it the night before the race, although we heard it should have been earlier on the weekend. However, thank you to Andi and Mike Sharp, who told us you better get there immediately or you will be waiting long. This place is worth the wait. We break down what we had and why you MUST check this place out when coming to the Jacksonville area.

    Check out Catullo’s menu here:

    This week, we begin our coverage of one of our favorite race weekends, the DONNA Marathon Weekend. It’s the Expo, Social Shakeout Run, and the incredible 5K! Aimee was so happy to be back and experience this fantastic version of the pre-race events and the 5K with a great start and finish in the Jacksonville Jaguars Stadium.

    More information about this fantastic weekend is available here:

    www.breastcancermarathon.com

    EAT

    Cinottis Bakery is a recommendation from Mike and Andi Sharp. It was a bustling Saturday morning as we came for post-race breakfast to celebrate the 5K. The staff is so knowledgeable and excellent. The breakfast sandwiches and burritos are tasty
 but that bakery case.. oh my goodness! Take some back to the hotel with you. You will not be sorry. Whether sweet or savory breakfast is your thing, this is a staple you can’t miss!

    Check out the menu and more here:

    https://cinottisbakery.com/

    DRINK

    Ink Factory Brewing (and Coffee, too!!) was our next stop! This place did not disappoint because two things we love are here. Coffee and local brews! We captured our reactions to the beer flights here and will share our coffee beverages in bonus content for our patrons, so stay tuned! This place had an 80s vibe, a game room, and a nostalgic little shop. On tap, they had refreshing original beer plus a smash burger food truck. Shout out to Allie for outstanding service here, too!

    Check out the menu at this fantastic spot here:

    Cafe Hiro’s Facebook page has some beautiful photos and additional information about their delicious dishes:

    In this special edition of our show, we talk with a legend in the running community, Boston Marathon Race Director Dave McGillivray. It was an honor and privilege to have him back on the show.

    When you go to davemcgillivray.com, you are greeted with a YouTube video that only scratches the surface of the hard work and dedication of the first-ever charity runner.

    From his storied run across the US in 1978 to benefit the Jimmy Fund to his time as Boston Marathon Race Director since the 1980s, he has found a way to marry running with supporting those in need. We loved his book, The Last Pick: The Boston Marathon Race Director’s Road to Success, and now he has donated that and a few others to our auction, benefitting The Donna Foundation in its mission to finish breast cancer.

    This week, he discusses what inspires him to give back through running. We can’t thank him enough for his inspirational stories and words of encouragement. We are grateful for the donations of his autographed books to our online auction for The Donna Foundation.

    Thank you, Dave McGillivray!

    RUN, EAT, AND DRINK at The Boston Run Show

    Today, Aimee flies solo and talks with Mike Seaman, CEO of Raccoon Media Group. He is an avid runner who has done seven marathons in seven days and many ultra marathons. His passion for running is evident; he has turned it into his profession.

    Today, he discusses The Boston Run Show with us, which is coming up on January 27-28, 2024, at Hynes Convention Center. It is an event for all runners, including inspirational speakers, gait analysis, nutritional tips for runners, running gear, and so much more! Olympic sprinter Michael Johnson will be the keynote speaker this year. So many others will take the stage to offer advice, experience, and inspiration to take your training to the next level.

    Find out more, reserve your spot today at thebostonrunshow.com and use code PODCAST to get your ticket free! Usually, there is a charge to get into this fantastic event, but for the Runcation Nation, you can do so at no charge with the code PODCAST.

    RUN

    This week, we recap our recent training plan updates and our local Midpoint Madness 5K for Veterans Day. We know it has been a minute since we had an episode where we shared our updates with you, so we are excited to get you up-to-date! From training for the Disneyland races to preparing for the Donna Marathon Weekend and beyond, we are letting you know what we have been training to accomplish!

    Run this race if you are ever in our neck of the woods and want to see a beautiful view from a bridge over the stunning blue water. The bridge we run over is typically not closed to traffic, and it was so nice to run over it and see that water and the fantastic view of Fort Myers and Cape Coral.

    Here’s a link to the race if you ever visit us in November:https://runsignup.com/Race/FL/FortMyers/MIDPOINTMADNESSVeteransDay5K

    EAT

    Ten Twenty-Five is a local spot in Fort Myers and Cape Coral. It has been here for a while now, and we have heard from several of our running friends how good the brunch is at the Cape Coral location. So, we decided to check it out! Dana went savory, while Aimee had the best of both worlds! We recap our excellent service and meal at this local hotspot.

    Ten Twenty-Five Brunch Menu: https://10twentyfive.net/fort-myers-10-twenty-five-fort-myers-food-menu

    DRINK

    Ten Twenty-Five has some tasty signature cocktails. They have a cocktail bar in addition to the main restaurant at the Cape Coral location that is worth checking out. It has a speakeasy feel, different from the restaurant and bar right next door, but the same excellent service is available on both sides.

    We indulged in the specialty Old Fashioned Menu, the innovative cocktail menu and sampled local beers on tap. All the offerings were tasty ways to toast the 5K!

    RUN

    This week, we talked with Runcation Nation member Chris Darling. He recaps an excellent race weekend that has been on our bucket list for years now, and we are targeting 2024 to run this one after hearing how amazing it is from him. It is the Bird-In-Hand Half Marathon Weekend in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

    Chris gives excellent travel tips and breaks down the weather (ring that bell!), packet pick-up, the evening 5K, and the half marathon of the weekend. He offers tips for making it a true “runcation” after the running and lets us know about places to explore, indulge, and celebrate your accomplishment in more ways than eating and drinking the local fare.

    Find out more and register for the 2024 edition of this race at https://www.bihhalfmarathon.com/

    EAT

    Despite having to leave right after running the race, Chris did have excellent recommendations for food in Lancaster. Stay for the BBQ after the race, even if you are part of a cheer squad supporting a fellow runner or family member, because all are welcome! Potato salad and real-deal BBQ meats plus dessert like Shoofly Pie abound at this unique post-race party.

    DRINK

    There is also a local spot that Chris talked about called Plain and Fancy that features tasty BBQ and Brews.

    Smokehouse BBQ and Brews: https://www.smokehousebbqandbrews.com/

    This place touts local brews on tap in every style, including the Evil Genius Adulting Guava IPA, WYNDRIDGE FARM CIDERY BLACK CHERRY CIDER, and EVIL GENIUS I LOVE LAMP HEFEWEIZEN. Can’t choose? There are beer flights, too. If you want to try local wines, selections like CHADDSFORD SUNSET BLUSH, WALTZ CELLAR 1599, MOSCATO WALTZ, and OLD LINE CHARDONNAY. If creative cocktails interest you, there are plenty, including the Pear Pressure and Backroads Bourbon, that sound sweet, smoky, and sinful! Of course, there are non-alcoholic drinks, too, including Lancaster Coffee Roasters coffee!

    THAT’S A WRAP
