The summer is a busy time and many things can get in the way of a perfect Chicago Marathon training plan. Kevin Kaduk and Jared Wyllys talk about working their way past bad weather, terrible air quality and family vacations as they get ready for the 2023 Chicago Marathon.

Also on the show: Kevin and producer Sarah Fichter talk about their experience at the 2023 Big Ten Network 10K over the weekend on the lakefront and Kevin talks about his new pair of shoes that were recommended by a reader (and last week’s guest, Kofuzi).
