Episode 49: Jekyll Island Marathon

from Mile 20 · host mile20podcast

In this episode, we recap our Jekyll Island Marathon experience and why this flat, destination race stood out, from running under live oak canopies and along marsh and water views to passing through the historic Jekyll Island once frequented by the Rockefellers. We share highlights from the weekend stay at the iconic resort, then dive into a race day defined by relentless rain, strong winds, and wildly changing conditions—including nearly getting taken out by a massive buck mid-race. We recap the weekend and race with reflections on a tough but memorable finish, and a shoutout to one truly epic Mile 20 aid stop that saved the day.    Check out Episode 46 with the Jekyll Island Race Director, Rogelio Quintanar, to hear more about the behind the scenes to this race!   Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music / Audible, and iHeartRadio!   Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mile20podcast?igsh=MWt4ZWhmbWw1MHM4dg%3D%3D&utm_source=qr Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/1H4M4PGB9R/?mibextid=wwXIfr
