    Another year of Getting Chicked is officially underway! Karen, Megan, and Rachel look back on how they did with their 2025 goals and take stock of which of their predictions aged well and which ones didn’t. They also revisit some of their favorite moments from the running world in 2025, including Faith Kipyegon’s Breaking4 attempt and the fourth and eighth place finishes from Susanna Sullivan and Jess McClain in the World Championships marathon.

    The Chicks then turn the page to 2026, sharing their goals, predictions, and a few early hot takes for the year ahead.

    Plus: the pros and cons of working with a coach versus relying on AI to write your training plan.
