    Rachel just had her biggest breakthrough yet! On Sunday, she ran 1:14 for a massive personal best in one of the most surprising races she's had. She breaks it down with Karen and Megan and shares about arriving at the course late, not being able to get in a warm up, thoughts throughout the race, and closing in a 5:13 for the last mile of the race. She and Megan also share about what races they're looking at next.

    The Chicks also share their reflections on the USATF Half Marathon Championships controversy, where the the lead pack of women were led off the course and weren't able to attain podium finishes as a result.

    Plus: Is it a good idea to take a weekly rest day? Which day is best for recovery?
