Boston Marathon Recap with Amanda Loudin

Hooray Run Podcast

Boston 2018 was historic. Cruddy weather didn't stop 34-year-old American Des Linden from gutting out a victory on the women's side. Linden became the first American woman to win Boston since 1985. On the men's side, Japan's Yuki Kawauchi took top honors. It was the 31-year-old's fourth marathon of 2018 and his first major victory. James Rogers does a quick solo recap, then health and fitness freelance writer Amanda Loudin (aka Miss Zippy) joins James to give her reactions to this wild day. James and Amanda also discuss the depth of American distance running.
