The Active You

So... who’s going to be more emotional at the NYC Marathon finish line? 😂

John didn’t even have to think about it. His answer: Rob.

It’ll be Rob’s first marathon, it’s NEW YORK CITY, and after all these months of training... we’re thinking John might be right.

What do you think? Is Rob crying at the finish line?

Episode 20 of The Active You comes out October 18!

John is FIRED UP about this one 😂

His take: you do NOT need to carry water for a 5K.

And he feels pretty strongly about it.

So now we have to ask... what are your thoughts? Are you carrying water for 3.1 miles or leaving it at home?

More running hot takes coming in Episode 20 of The Active You on October 18!

Carbon plated shoes for every run? John has some thoughts 👀

He’s saving them for race day and speed work, but not everyone agrees.

So what’s your take? Are carbon plated shoes part of your everyday rotation or are you saving them for the fast days?

Rob’s marathon training rule? Don’t tell him he can’t have a b**r the night before a long run.

And with the B**r Mile THIS SUNDAY, we’re taking that balance pretty literally.

Run a lap. Drink a b**r. Repeat x4.

Training hard is important, but so is having a little fun with it.

Grab your friends, sign up and we’ll see you Sunday at Bottle Rocket B**r Reserve for the B**r Mile!

Party John is officially staying in Buffalo until AFTER the marathon.

NYC is all business first: training, sleep, fueling, race day.

Then once 26.2 is done?

Party John can make the trip.

John’s post-marathon plan is simple: eat everything in sight.

After 26.2 miles through NYC, we need recommendations. Pizza? Bagel? Pasta? Burger? All of the above?

Drop your best post-marathon NYC food spots below so we can start building John’s recovery menu now.

Rob’s post-marathon plans are already set: cross the finish line, cry a little, and take in the fact that he just finished his first marathon.

NYC is getting closer, and we’re pretty sure this moment is going to hit hard.

Follow along as Rob, John and the crew continue the road to the NYC Marathon.

Imagine running 26.2 miles with an engagement ring in your pocket.

Ryan didn’t just finish the Walt Disney World Marathon with his now-wife, he proposed just steps past the finish line!

He even bought running shorts specifically with a zipper pocket to make sure that ring made it safely through all 26.2 miles. Talk about having a little extra pressure on race day.
