    This week we cover our most favorite topic. A listener requested topic! We opened the floor up to our Facebook page to see what folks had on their minds, and came up with this weeks episode. We're not all elite level. We don't all have that runners physique. Does that make us any less of a runner? Nope! Let's talk about impostor syndrome and how that relates to the running world.
