    Ivy Insights

    The Relay podcast stands out from other running podcasts by offering multiple viewpoints and personalities in one place. It serves as a one-stop shop for all things running, providing a variety of hosts who bring their unique perspectives and entertaining banter to the show. Whether you're looking for serious conversations, hot running topics, or just some laughter to keep you entertained on your run, The Relay has got you covered.

    One of the best aspects of The Relay podcast is the mix of personalities among the hosts. They have great chemistry and their friendly teasing adds an extra layer of enjoyment to the show. The sometimes wacky humor keeps listeners entertained and even prompts genuine laughter. The variety of hosts also ensures that there are different perspectives on race happenings and other running-related topics, making for interesting discussions.

    However, there are some downsides to The Relay podcast. One major issue is the audio quality, particularly with Laura's feed. Her audio often cuts in and out, which can be not only frustrating but also dangerous if you're listening while wearing headphones during a run. It would be great if they could find a solution to this problem to ensure a consistent listening experience for their audience.

    In conclusion, if you have even a mild interest in running or track & field and enjoy casual fun conversations with friends, The Relay podcast is definitely worth a listen. The team behind this podcast knows their stuff and brings a unique perspective to the table. You'll feel like you're eavesdropping on a group of well-informed friends discussing various running topics – except these friends might have actually competed in the Olympics! So grab your headphones or lace up your running shoes and give The Relay podcast a try – you won't be disappointed.

    In this engaging conversation, Haftu Knight shares his remarkable journey from Ethiopia to becoming one of the fastest marathoners in US history. He discusses his recent success at the McKirdy Micro Marathon where he ran 2:09:38. That performance made him the 22nd fastest marathoner in US history and the fastest Texas marathoner ever (he broke Alan Culpepper's record by five seconds). In this episode we talk about the strategies he employed during races,, his time at a elite athlete at the University of Texas, and the influence of his coach Jeff Cunningham. Haftu reflects on his training regimen, the importance of family and community, and his aspirations for the future, including competing in the Olympics. His story is one of resilience, hard work, and the pursuit of excellence.
