Keely, Corrine, and Hillary start the episode by talking about some recent races and news in womens sports and health, most notably they discuss the recent Colorado bill passed to increase health coverage to those suffering from an eating disorder. Then they interview Rachel Drake. She is a professional trail runner for Nike Trail, a mom to her son Lewis, medical student and scientist, and all around lovely human being. She is known throughout the trail running community for her contagious smile and kind demeanor. They talk about her journey back to running postpartum and what she learned about her body and her needs.  She recently finished 5th at the California International Marathon and 1st at the 33km at Hong Kong and is gearing up for the Black Canyons 100k to shoot for that elusive golden ticket and we can’t wait to see how she does! We are SO STOKED to share our interview with you all, enjoy!
