The BibRave Podcast Ep. 53: Chattin’ About Charity

We have another great episode of the BibRave Podcast with co-hosts Tim and Andy! Episode #53 is brought to you by The BibRave 100 and the Under Armour Mountain Running Series.

The two discuss Tim’s recent arrival to Colorado and his preparations for next weekend’s Leadville 100. Make sure to tune in next week for special Leadville coverage and a bonus episode! Then, the duo cover some highlights from the IAAF World Championships in London – especially some memorable female accomplishments.

CORRECTION: In this episode, Tim incorrectly states that Faith Kipyegon was eliminated from the 2012 London Games for doping. Kipyegon was eliminated in the 1500m heats of the 2012 London Olympics, and then went on to win gold at Rio. Apparently, Tim is easily confused. 

Next, Andy brings us up to speed on his Chicago Marathon training, and the successes with JDRF charity fund raising. Finally, Tim and Andy each share 3 notable (and hopefully) running-related items – everything from beersicles to LAX balls.
