About this episode

Meg shares her experience running the Sydney Marathon while dealing with sickness.

Meg just picked up her 7th major marathon in Sydney, but it came with a side of sickness that almost left her in Los Angeles. She's mostly back to normal, enough to recap her journey to the other side of the Earth. We cover that, as well as the Asics Sonicblast 2 Sunrise Edition. Thanks to Asics for the support over the past couple weeks, and to everyone that said hello from down under. SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!
