Mile 20

Lorri & Laura hit the streets of Philly for the 2025 Broad Street Run — the nation’s biggest 10-mile race. From drinking red wine at every mile (for Medoc training of course), beating the rain, SEPTA hacks and porta-john struggles, they break down race-day highs, rookie memories, and pre-run eats. Hear about the race, the experience, and why you should always bring your own TP.

Our special guest & friend Julie joins us to share our group’s experience running the 2018 Amica Newport Marathon—a scenic but hilly course through coastal Rhode Island. From ocean views, historic mansions, a post-race ocean dip and great local food, Rhode Island did not disappoint. You’ll love the charm of this small New England race.

Lorri and Laura chose the Rock ‘n’ Roll Savannah Marathon for its historic ambiance and the promise of music at every mile. Lorri ran in 2013 with friends while Laura ran solo in 2017. The course showcased Savannah’s charm — cobblestone streets, historic squares, and the iconic Forsyth Park finish — but also included long, soul-crushing stretches on the Truman Parkway, aka the “Highway to Hell.”  Though the race was discontinued after 2021, the memories — and the miles — live on.

Lorri and Laura revisit their unforgettable experience running the 2018 Two Bears Marathon in Whitefish, Montana - a scenic, small-town race near Glacier National Park with only 53 finishers that year. They share classic course moments like unpredictable weather, sprinting to the start line, sharing a beer with the sweeper car driver and being dubbed “The Philly Girls.”  The trip doubled as a mountain adventure, with post-race hikes through Glacier National Park, a bear encounter, fire worries, and the lucky reopening of Going-to-the-Sun Road.  It was a reminder that small races can leave the biggest impressions.
