It's the most wonderful time of the year, when the Believe in the Run team wears their favorite Christmas sweaters and gathers around an invisible fire for an hour-long bedtime story. Hopefully Santa will come and deliver the Mizuno Neo Zen to all the good boys and girls because it's a pretty fantastic shoe. SHOP THE STUFF WE TALK ABOUT

In our final installment of the team's origin stories, we visit the life and times of Meaghan Murray. If it's not already obvious, Meg is the glue that holds this house of cards together, and you'll see why after listening to this episode. From growing up in Maryland to going to school in Charleston to finally getting into running and absolutely crushing it with dedication and consistency, she finally gets a chance to tell her story with only minor interruptions from the peanut gallery. Hope you enjoy and thanks for all your kind thoughts and words on our origin stories over the last few weeks.

Becs Gentry is a peloton instructor, 2:32 marathoner, a mom, and an all-around amazing human. We first spoke with Becs on her podcast, Set the Pace, and immediately knew we wanted to hear more. Originally from London, Becs now lives in New York City teaching tread, strength and rowing classes. In this episode, we chat all about growing up in the UK, her time with Nike, running in the Olympic Marathon Trials and how she ended up at Peloton.

We shed our shells in this episode and go really deep into nut talk (don't ask) and why there needs to be a roast of runners. We also cover some key Strava stats that show the running surge in real numbers, recap Meg's win at the Baltimore 10 Miler, and finally get around to talking about the Asics Magic Speed 4.

So many things happening in running right now, and not enough time to talk about them all. So we'll make sure to cover the rest. From Barcelona to BU to Blue from Old School, we keep you on the front lines of all the things you need to know, including Severance recaps and Starbucks rebrands. We also talk about the Diadora Gara Carbon 2, which we're pretty sure is just the Diadora Gara Carbon 1, but hey– it's still a great shoe.

The boys are back in town, except now Robbe has ventured off to Spain. But that's okay, as Karl joins Thomas and Meg in front of the camera this week to recap their adventure in Kenya with Kiprun to unveil their new race shoe, the KD900X LAB - a 5K/10K racer which seems pretty promising. Plus, Meg recaps her time in D.C. for the start of the Asics Move Her Mind Event Series as well as racing the Cherry Blossom 10 Miler. This episode is a pretty long one, so hopefully you're running enough miles out there to cover the entire thing.

Southwest is basically Spirit Plus now, which makes this podcast Spirit Minus, but don’t worry– we’ll never charge you for all that baggage you’re carrying around. Zero guarantees this plane stays on course, because right after liftoff we veer right into King Richard III, Baltimore ice cream trucks, and our favorite variations of the Mandela Effect. Also, a couple of us signed up for the JFK 50 Miler, for better or for worse. Finally, we talk about the Tracksmith Eliot Racer, a surprisingly capable race day shoe with a super bouncy, dual layer ATPU and PEBAX midsole.

On this special in-studio episode of The Drop, Thomas and Meg chat with Paul Lang, ASICS global senior product manager. Go behind the scenes of what it's like to work for one of the biggest brands in running, how development and supply chains work, and what it's like figuring out consumer wants and buyer demands. Definitely a good one for all the industry nerds out there.

We'll be real– we don't even remember what happened during this train wreck of an episode that involved a debate on the consistency of ice rinks, reaching the end of the Instagram algorithm, the ongoing beef of Puma vs. Brooks, chicken soup for the soul, and terrible investing advice. Believe it or not, we eventually get around to the Nike Zoom Fly 6 and Asics Novablast 5.
