67: Is The Boston Marathon Overhyped?

  • Resumen

  • The big marathons including Boston and New York are ubiquitous on social media - but do they live up to the hype? We take a different format in our episode today and provide you with a nuanced hot take (as paradoxical as that sounds) on the most popular marathons.


    First, we answer a listener’s question about taking Tylenol or Advil before a race. Then, we dive into a hot take: are the World Marathon Majors, including the Boston Marathon, overhyped on social media?


    Discussion points include:

    • How Boston may have oversaturated running news over the past year
    • Why Boston should keep spots for charity runners
    • Should Boston change their entry process/qualifying standards?
    • Is it too easy for women to qualify for Boston?
    • Why are the World Marathon Majors (New York, Chicago, etc) so special?
    • Why you should embrace your own running journey no matter which races you run
