The moments where you're ready to quit and somehow don't.What you'll hear in this episode:Why Boston ruins your quads in the first four miles - before you even feel itThe Wellesley Scream Tunnel: you can hear it a kilometer before you reach itAlan's Gollum analogy for the mental battle on the Newton HillsEmily's tip that made strangers cheer for her the entire 42.2KThe real story behind why Heartbreak Hill is called Heartbreak Hill - from 1936Is Heartbreak Hill actually as hard as they say?

| 4/1/26 |  Running Denver with a Local: How Sara Built the City’s Best Running Tours | Sara Amato wasn't sure anyone would want to run Denver. "It doesn't have the cool architecture and history that European cities do," she told us. She built the tours anyway.Sara is Go!

| 3/10/26 |  What Happens when a Hotel GM decides running is part of the guest experience | Hyatt Regency McCormick Place in Chicago partnered with Go! Running Tours to offer guests something most hotels don't: a guided running service that starts at the hotel door and takes you into the city.Two routes. Both 6K. One along Lake Michigan - past Soldier Field and the Adler Planetarium. One south through Chinatown's Dragon Gate to Ping Tom Memorial Park. Private, guided, available every day, adapted to your pace.The partnership came from a simple observation: business travelers and conference guests want to stay active on the road, but they don't always know where to run or how to make it happen before a full day of meetings. A bespoke running service removes that friction - and adds a layer to the hotel experience that a gym simply can't replicate.In this episode of Go! Running Talks, Lena sits down with Matt Schalk, General Manager of Hyatt Regency McCormick Place, to talk about:Why Hyatt Regency McCormick Place invested in a running service for guestsWhat hotels gain by catering to active travelers and conference attendeesHow running fits the rhythm of business travelChicago's South Loop and lakefront trail - what makes them worth runningHis best running memory: a hidden oceanfront trail near a San Francisco airport hotelWhat running has taught him about leading a large teamBook a running tour from Hyatt Regency McCormick Place: https://gorunningtours.com/hyatt-regency-mccormick/About Go!
