`Run eat Repeat Podcast 133. We’re talking about the fun Run Challenge, the London Marathon ‘bubble’ and how that worked and giving much more support to female athletes!

Instead of the typical Running calendar with suggested workouts – I have a fun RUN challenge for you this month! and The London Marathon is the most significant race to actually be held this year. 

But it was very different from any other race we’ve ever seen. Race officials set up a biosphere for the runners and their teams. 

And I’m sharing of the very fun and interesting guidelines and tools they used to keep everyone safe!!

But before we get into that… Let’s warm Up

Warm Up: 

Fun Run Challenge! I like to share a Running calendar each month to help keep you accountable and motivated to run. but even though we’re talking about a real live race today – I know it’s been very hard to workout and run this year. 

There have been so numerous obstacles that have gotten in the way of our running and fitness goals. I feel like everyone I know has said they’ve gained weight because the start of the pandemic and safer at home orders. 

And it’s strange but I feel like I’m much more discouraged when I feel like I’ve gained weight. I wish I was much more determined! 

So instead of the typical running workout calendar – the October calendar is a fun Run Challenge! There are 31 days of ideas and inspiration to help you have fun on the run. 

I really believe running is one of the best ways to get fit. and I really believe it can be fun!

Please join us! It’s a terrific way to meet other runners!!

London Marathon Bubble fun Facts and supporting female Athletes
Before athletes & any of their team members traveled to London they were evaluated for Covid.

Then, they were evaluated again upon arrival.

And even though it’s far from the norm pre-race prep… that’s not

And that’s when it got interesting…

All the athletes and their team members stayed in an undisclosed location where they eat, slept and trained. They weren’t allowed to go much more than a certain # of yards away from the location.

Molly Seidel on the London Marathon… “It’s very fancy. The food is great. It’s wild.”

Within the bubble social distancing they are all required to wear ‘beepers’ that make a noise if you get within 6 feet of anybody else. 

The ‘beepers’ are small and attached to a necklace. everyone has to wear it anytime they leave their hotel room. The system doesn’t track where they’re going, just goes off when one beeper is too close to another. 

The London Marathon course – 20 laps around St. James Park.

From Runner’s world – details on the London Marathon bubble:

Details of the meet hotel were kept secret all week, with athletes cautioned not to identify their location online. (And they weren’t kidding—Seidel posted an Instagram of herself training on the grounds, but was asked to take it down.) set on 40 acres of land, the hotel grounds offered enough room for runners to log their final sessions, while wheelchair racers trained on stationary rollers in their bedrooms.

At many events, athletes share a twin room, but this time everyone had their own place to sleep. Masks were mandatory whatsoever times around the hotel except while training or eating, and athletes were given bump technology pendants to wear around their necks, which made a beeping noise if they got too close to one another.

From the UK Telegraph – on the winners:

Eliud Kipchoge’s reign as the king of the London Marathon concerned a shock end as Shura Kitata emerged from the rain and the gloom to become the new champion.

In a spectacular upset Kipchoge, who had won all of his previous four London Marathons and had not lost over the distance in seven years, dropped alarmingly off the pace around the 22-mile mark.

The 35-year-old world record holder had no answer as a seven-strong lead group edged away from him, and he ended up finishing down in eighth. He revealed after the race that he had suffered with a blocked best ear with 15km remaining. 

But despite the slow pace he came up short and Kitata took full advantage, as Kipchoge was beaten for the first time because he came second in Berlin in 2013.

London Marathon Winners…

Women’s top Three:

Brigid Kosgei (KEN) 02:18.58

Sara Hall (USA) 02:22.01

Ruth Chepngetich (KEN) 02:22.05

Hall’s second place implies she is the first American to finish on the podium of the London Marathon since  Deena Kastor won the race in 2006. 

Just a reminder, she will not be representing her country at next year’s Olympics in Tokyo (if they go ahead) as she didn’t finish in the top three at the trials earlier this year.

Men’s top three

Shura Kitata (ETH): 02:05:41

Vincent Kipchumba (KEN): 02:05:42 

Sisay Lemma (ETH): 02:05:45

I still love Eliud Kipchoge and can’t wait to see him CRUSH the Olympics!!

And many inspiring finish award goes to  Sara Hall – 2nd place in a big kick finish.

Heather McDonald Podcast interview with Caitlin Jenner – I don’t view keeping up with the Kardashians because I don’t have E! (the channel their show is on). but I do like to keep up with them by listening to podcasts with episode recaps. 

I didn’t very closely follow everything that happened with Caitlin Jenner and her transition either. but I thought it’d be a good listen while running – it was. 

I think Heather McDonald was such a good person to interview her because they’ve known each other for years, but aren’t really close friends. So it was a good mix of familiar without it being all inside jokes or bubble gum level. It’s not crazy juicy, but it’s interesting and it made me appreciate Caitlin more. I’m thinking about listening to her book now.

Please tell someone about this podcast, preferably someone who has a smart phone and likes running, eating or Red headed Mexicans. 

If you’re in a good mood, have an extra 3 minutes and just had a snack… please rate and review the show in Apple Podcasts or Stitcher. each time I get a 5 star review I’m good to Diego. each time I get a bad review or get no new reviews – I tell him I’m sending him to the canine orphanage. So, it’s up to you. 

Thank you so much for listening! have a terrific run!!
