    Karen, Megan, and Rachel catch up on the runs they’ve been getting in back at their hometowns and what they've been up to over the holidays. The Chicks also break down some of the biggest OTQ highlights from The Marathon Project last weekend and what made the event stand out from other marathons.

    They also dig into a recent NCAA track and field controversy involving a positive test for a banned substance and the quiet removal of the runner's 2023 NCAA title.

    For today’s receipts, Rachel shares insights from a study looking at how running and cross training volume and intensity change for elite female distance runners during and after pregnancy and what that means for postpartum performance.

    Plus: tips for training and sleeping at altitude.
