The Running for Real Podcast

There have been times in Quinton Jacobs’ running life when he chased PRs and qualifying times. Those were physical seasons.

The Running for Real Podcast

David Roche smashed the 19-year-old course record at the Leadville Trail 100 Run this year. It was the first time that he’d run 100 miles, and even more incredibly, only months after a very different kind of smash. In April, while riding his bike, he was hit by a car and thrown 100 feet through the air and into a ditch, sustaining lacerations, a broken wrist, and a concussion.
