This week on the Marathon Handbook Podcast, Michael, Katelyn, and Alex kick things off with a recap of Alex's busy wedding weekend on Prince Edward Island, complete with a surprise timed 5K. Then it's into a full Q&A covering some of our most-requested topics: how to fit marathon training into a packed schedule as a working parent, building a smart long-term plan toward a Boston Qualifier, what a "rocker profile" actually does in a super shoe, and whether a declining VO2 max means your marathon days are numbered as you age.Chapters:0:00 Intro0:36 Alex Cyr's Wedding Weekend Recap17:37 Sponsor: Lagoon Sleep Pillows19:18 Back From Break / How to Submit Questions20:26 Q&A: Marathon Training With Kids & No Time to Spare33:34 Q&A: Long-Term Planning Toward a Boston Qualifier43:42 Q&A: What Is a Rocker Profile in Running Shoes?51:33 Q&A: Is Your VO2 Max Declining With Age?1:03:14 Run Club, Community & Wrap-UpSUPPORT OUR SPONSOR:Lagoon pillows help us sleep better, so we run better.
