Always fun when you have to re-record an entire episode. That's what we had to do this week (after recording one of our best episodes over). We tried to replicate it the best we could by recapping the Super Bowl and the Millrose Games, marveling at Skechers audacity and insistence on ripping off On, and reminsicing about smoky dive bars and 8-bit video games. We also talk about the On Cloudsurfer 2, a daily trainer and first shoe of the On "SOFT WINS" campaign.

There's a hole in this ship and the only that can fix it Billy Mays (RIP) and flex tape. Even then, probably not. This week on The Drop, we surprisingly do talk a good bit about running, including the strength of our trail team, Paris Fashion Week, whether or not we know what intervals and repeats mean. We also discuss the totally wild and renewed version of the Hoka Cielo X1 2.0.

Completing 100 Ironman-length triathlons in 100 days seems like hell, but James Lawrence set out to do it. And he did it. Hear about his journey and read all about it in his new book, "Iron Hope."

Our brains are mostly frozen, which is how we went a whole podcast forgetting to give our respect to Conner Mantz at the Houston Marathon. But we do manage to talk about running shoes, including the Brooks Glycerin 22, while mixing in a whole bunch of other interests, including our favorite TV shows of all-time.

Keira D’Amato is back on the podcast (previously on Ep11, 100 and 292) for another fun conversation and a big announcement!

In her new book, Don’t Call it a Comeback, Keira relives her unusual, challenging, hilarious, un-filtered, fun, inspiring running journey and brings us all along for the ride.

Last weekend was a blast running with the GRIT gang here in Baltimore, so in this week's episode of The Drop, we recap that. Meg was having the worst run ever in Charleston, so she dives into that, as well as how she got to see the Bob Dylan movie six months in advance. We also cover the return of Shelby Houlihan and the state of Strava before getting into all the details of the Hoka Bondi 9.
We'll going to Miami! Come join us for a shakeout run and hang out with us on a freakin' yacht, where you can demo the Bondi 9 and snag some free swag, including a pair of Goodr sunglasses. RSVP here:

Kicking the new year off right with trying to figure out if pigeons are halal, the legacy of the Donner Party, hologram bracelets and very non-Eastern philosophies, Winter GRIT updates, and Meg's new foray into sourdough bread baking. Also, we talk about the Anta C202 5 GT, which sounds like a droid name, and more thoughts on the Asics Gel-Nimbus 27. We'll also be in Miami at the end of the month, so maybe we'll see you there.

In our final installment of the team's origin stories, we visit the life and times of Meaghan Murray. If it's not already obvious, Meg is the glue that holds this house of cards together, and you'll see why after listening to this episode. From growing up in Maryland to going to school in Charleston to finally getting into running and absolutely crushing it with dedication and consistency, she finally gets a chance to tell her story with only minor interruptions from the peanut gallery. Hope you enjoy and thanks for all your kind thoughts and words on our origin stories over the last few weeks.

Feels weird to write this about myself, but Robbe is co-host of The Drop running podcast, director of website affairs, editor in chief of Believe in the Run, father of raccoons, urban redneck, hot and cold runner, music maker and dreamer of dreams. This is his story, his history, from beginning to end (with honestly, a lot left out). It's been a wild ride, and thanks to all of you for coming along– it's been the honor of a lifetime to know you and I forever indebted to all of you for allowing me to do this with my life.

But first, we give you all the details on our week of Christmas movies and recommendations, Robbe's personal Baltimore crime report, earthworm calling, and also thoughts on the afterlife. Quite a range of nonsense.

Coming at you live from the floor of The Running Event (hence the audio) from inside the Satisfy booth, Thomas and Robbe chat with ultrarunning legend and Possessed Magazine cover boy Scott Jurek about growing up in Minnesota, fishing, transitioning into different stages of running and life, and how to not break your ankles while running on the pile of rocks known as the Pennsylvania section of the Appalachian Trail. We also somehow forgot to ask him about @yaboyscottjurek (not his account), which was our only regret.
