116: What Is The Hardest Running Distance To Train For?

Andy, Rick, and Sarah have collectively trained for and raced just about every distance — now they're debating which one is the hardest to train for! Each of them has strong opinions, and we want to hear yours too — let us know in the comments!

We also spoke with none other than SiS athlete Eilish McColgan, who has represented Scotland and Great Britain across a range of distances on the international stage. She shared her take on the debate and gave us a look into how she’s preparing for her first-ever marathon: the upcoming London Marathon.
