Summer is here, and so is marathon training.

In Episode 14, Rob and John break down what every runner should know about training through heat and humidity. They discuss why your pace slows down during the summer, hydration and electrolyte strategies, fueling for long runs, preventing chafing, choosing the right summer gear, and what it's like beginning training for the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon with Coach Luke Rogers.

The episode also wraps up with a comparison between the Saucony Triumph 24 and the Nike Vomero Plus to help runners decide which max-cushion trainer might be right for them.

Whether you're running your first 5K or preparing for your next marathon, this episode is full of practical tips to help you train smarter all summer.
