Carbon plated shoes for every run? John has some thoughts đź‘€
He’s saving them for race day and speed work, but not everyone agrees.
So what’s your take? Are carbon plated shoes part of your everyday rotation or are you saving them for the fast days?
Rob’s marathon training rule? Don’t tell him he can’t have a b**r the night before a long run.
And with the B**r Mile THIS SUNDAY, we’re taking that balance pretty literally.
Run a lap. Drink a b**r. Repeat x4.
Training hard is important, but so is having a little fun with it.
Grab your friends, sign up and we’ll see you Sunday at Bottle Rocket B**r Reserve for the B**r Mile!

Where’s Waldo? More importantly... where’s your costume? 👀
We’re throwing it back to some of our favorite Howl-O-Weenie looks from last year to give you a little inspiration.
The Howl-O-Weenie 5K is ONE MONTH AWAY, so it’s officially time to start planning.
Solo costume? Running buddy duo? Full group theme? We want to see it all. October 17 at Green Lake in Orchard Park. What are you dressing up as?!

John’s post-marathon plan is simple: eat everything in sight.
After 26.2 miles through NYC, we need recommendations. Pizza? Bagel? Pasta? Burger? All of the above?
Drop your best post-marathon NYC food spots below so we can start building John’s recovery menu now.
Rob’s post-marathon plans are already set: cross the finish line, cry a little, and take in the fact that he just finished his first marathon.
NYC is getting closer, and we’re pretty sure this moment is going to hit hard.
Follow along as Rob, John and the crew continue the road to the NYC Marathon.
Imagine running 26.2 miles with an engagement ring in your pocket.
Ryan didn’t just finish the Walt Disney World Marathon with his now-wife, he proposed just steps past the finish line!
He even bought running shorts specifically with a zipper pocket to make sure that ring made it safely through all 26.2 miles. Talk about having a little extra pressure on race day.

Before running and after running.
That’s how big of an impact running has had on Ryan Smith’s life.
What started 13 years ago with a run-walk-run method has turned into 9 marathons, 36 half marathons, races around the world, an incredible running community and, of course, a mission to run a 5K at every Wegmans.
It’s pretty amazing where simply deciding to start can take you.
Hear more of Ryan’s story when Episode 17 of The Active You comes out THIS SUNDAY!
