If you don't know Jenny yet, you should! She's won some of the most famously hard races on the circuit. They talk about: Why she picks races by feel and what she wants to do — even if that means skipping UTMB this year How her relationship with running has changed over time Mixing up the courses, terrain, and training And, of course, the topic on everyone's mind this week: Did Rachel Entrekin's win at Cocodona 250 change the game for the 200+ distance?
