About this listen

This episode is a wild ride through one of the most chaotic events in sporting history. If you thought modern marathons were intense, wait until you hear about the 1904 St. Louis Olympic Marathon—featuring dust clouds, strychnine "performance enhancers," wild dogs, and a winner who hitched a ride in a car for half the race. It’s less of a race and more of a 26-mile fever dream that barely anyone survived.

We also know that life can feel like a grueling marathon sometimes, and you don’t have to run it alone. This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp. Whether you’re navigating the hurdles of a relationship or just trying to find your pace, therapy can help you clear the dust and see the finish line.Take the pressure off yourself and get 10% off your first month at BetterHelp.com/BROHIO.
