Training with Dad for a New PR w/ Rachel Barger
Manage episode 459018194 series 2823196
Rachel Barger has proudly been a lifelong "back of the pack" marathoner, but in the buildup to the 2025 Grandma's Marathon she decided to do something she'd never done before.
She decided to really care about her time.
Rachel is teaming up this training cycle with her father, Joe, who has run 35 full marathons in his life, including 24 of those in Duluth. Together, they will be trying to shave nearly an hour off Rachel's exisiting PR this June.
We check in with them both near the start of their journey to talk about how this goal came to be and discuss the work needed to accomplish it, together.
