The Perfect Messy Bun, Spain Prep, and When Running Starts to Click

from Going Off Course · host Michelle Knafla and Carolyn Carter

Messy buns, marathon goals, and the math of squeezing in a run before a flight—this one’s got it all. We cover the evolution of early 2000s hairstyles (Michelle’s signature ponytail, Carolyn's swimmer-perfect messy bun), dramatic taper week injuries (yes, from making a reel), and the questionable ways Michelle consumes electrolytes. Carolyn preps for Spain while debating whether to raw dog the flight to the Zwift theme song, and Michelle casually gets her marathon PR wrong. We talk about the upcoming Zwift trip, Boston goals, future race plans (Rose Bowl Half? St. George?!), and the moment running just starts to click. Plus: ironman guy energy, emo phases, and why people are always surprised Carolyn’s not tall?Next episode: the Spain recap and Boston ramp up!  Hosted on Acast.
