AMR Trains #29: Running Races One Year into Pandemic

While it's still unclear when and how a major marathon will happen, smaller running races are blooming all over the country.

Dimity checks in with two race directors in two states: John Mortimer, founder of Millenium Running in Bedford, New Hampshire, and Karen Lechtenberg, a race director of five events and a full-time teacher in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

The three discuss:

—What March 2020 felt like—and how Cinco de Mayo became Cinco de Julio

—Best practices for race day from a race director and runner's perspective;

—The silver linings that COVID-19 brought to road racing (PR's galore!);
