We are so excited to welcome two time Olympian, 20 time National Road Champion, American record holder in the half marathon, road 5k AND the10,000 meters, podcast host (Keeping Track Podcast) and author ("How She Did It" coming in January 2022!), Molly Huddle to the Suite Run Podcast! We chat with Molly eleven days ahead of her racing the Boston Marathon - talking about her marathon prep and overall career. Then we pivot to all things running and travel as Molly shares the best places to RUN, dine out, great races, places of interest and so much more in the artsy and quaint, seaside New England town of Providence, RI.

Enjoy our conversation!
