The Drop

By Believe in the Run

A running podcast from Believe in the Run, The Drop is brought to you by hosts Thomas Neuberger, Robbe Reddinger, and Meaghan Murray. But this isn't your typical running podcast– we'll talk about running (of course), but also discuss a wide range of topics, from pop culture to pigeons (not real) to picking up trash here in Baltimore. We also interview elite athletes, industry insiders, musicians, coaches, and more. Follow along as we also discuss our own running highs and lows, as well as our favorite shoes and gear.

If you listen to the podcast, you already know. We were going hard in the paint for the Kevin Salvano during the Olympic Marathon Trials and while it may not have been his day, he went full send and that's all that matters. Find out how he got to the Trials in the first place and what it's like to "quit running" and then run a 2:16 for your first marathon.

We go where other podcasts don't dare to go. Mainly because other podcasters aren't finding copius amounts of watter bottles filled with urine on their runs and talking about it. We also talk about our running, our fears, our favorite shows right now, and the Hoka Mach 6 - a lightweight, fun, and more durable trainer that Hoka fans will/should/probably love.

We're super excited about the new LMNT Chocolate Medley, featuring Chocolate Mint, Chocolate Chai, and Chocolate Raspberry, designed to be enjoyed hot or swirled into your favorite recipes.

Well, it was magic down in Orlando. Over the course of three days, we packed it in. From shake out runs to podcasts to random encounters with many of you on the streets, we had an absolute blast. Of course, it was all capped off with a race to remember on Saturday morning, where we finally got to see who will be representing the United States in Paris this summer. Thanks to Hoka and Citius Mag for partnering with us throughout the week, Justin Hall (@justin_yall) and Chase Fleming (@chaseflemingphoto) for capturing photos, and thanks to all of you for coming out and supporting us and the running community. Now let's to go France.

230 | A Conversation with Hoka at the Olympic Marathon Trials

We're working on a Hoka ska band and are stuck between SKAZ Elite, The Mighty Mighty Cliftones, Reel Big Bondis, or Hoka Mach Sax. You'll get it after you watch the interview. Live from the Hoka Fly Lab at the Olympic Marathon Trials in Orlando, Robbe and Meaghan chat with the Hoka team about how they got here and where things are going, specifically with the Hoka Cielo X1. First up, we talk with Bekah Broe, Director of Product, Performance Footwear, before jumping into all things Cielo X1 with the designer of the shoe, Val Weilert, Senior Design Manager for Hoka.

Meg may or may not have set up a campsite in Harbor East in the hopes of catching a Taylor Swift sighting as she comes into town to see her Travvy lose to Lamar and the rest of the Ravens. We also cover our own running (the road to Boston begins now, or something), Thomas listening to the sounds of the Rainforest Cafe through a sleep mask, and whether or not we could survive an Andes plane crash (we couldn't). We also talk about the Diadora Gara Carbon, a surprisingly great carbon-plated race day shoe coming at the end of February.

We're in the Bermuda Triangle of our run seasons. Meg's disoriented with no race goals on the horizon. Gravity may be on strike. Bodies and iPhones are breaking down left and right. Somewhere in there, Christmas happened. And we also ran in the Reebok Floatzig and were surprised at how much we enjoyed it.

There's also some skullduggery in the office fantasy football competition. Plus, we reminisce about our first running shoes, early aughts television, and run down a few different shoes, including the Puma Fast-R Nitro Elite 2, Reebok Floatzig, and Asics GEL-NYC.

Meaghan is in California where she ran a certain race in Sacramento in a certain shoe that starts with Alpha ends with Fly 3, which we will talk about all of that on the next episode of The Drop. There's a lot to cover in this episode, and Robbe's concerned that Thomas has never dipped french fries in a Wendy's Frosty.

We also talk about the On Cloudeclipse, a shoe in which Meg has already logged 100 miles.

From the expo to the shake out run with New Balance to the marathon itself, we're not sure anything can top what just went down. Hear all about our full in-depth recap of the weekend and the race itself, and forgive us if we get a little lost along the way.


Special thanks to New Balance and New York Road Runners, and of course, to all of you. We really have a special community of runners and couldn't do it it without your support.

Obviously, it was a pretty good time. There's a lot of talk about goats, like, the actual animal. And alpacas. It's basically an advertisement for FarmersOnly.

At a time when every shoe was over 10 mm in drop, Brian Beckstead and Golden Harper came along and took an idea from zero to, well... zero drop. Since then, Altra has become a staple brand in the running, walking, and hiking scenes, known for its footshape shoes and focus on a natural running lifestyle. However, everything has changed with the all-new 4 mm drop AltraFWD Experience. Does it matter? We ask Brian about that, the history and future of the brand, and what it's like to fly fish in South America.

First things first, let's talk about Kipchoge's dual snot rivers that rivaled the outflow of the Tigris and Euphrates. Then we'll talk about his win in Berlin and Assefa's dismantling of the women's world record. From there, we get into how horrible our faces look after a run, whether or not we're just perpetually injured but used to it, and wonder if Baltimore rats are getting into Meg's collagen stash. Lastly, we touch on the AltraFWD Experience, a 4 mm drop shoe that's... a shoe. If this episode doesn't help you nail your peak long run for this fall marathon cycle, then you may as well just quit running.
