SHOUT OUTS
Thanks to all our patrons and everyone in the Runcation Nation for your support and encouragement. Because of you, we have been able to keep the show going over the last two years, and now that the races are returning, we look forward to meeting up with you, too!
Congratulations to John Schroeder, who invited us to do our weekend coffee chat from his Cars and Coffee event atInnisbrook Resort. Susie, JoJo, and Darlene took their runcation to Kentucky for the Kentucky Derby Mini Marathon this past weekend. They celebrated JoJo’s big birthday in true “Runcation Nation” fashion with excellent running, eating, and drinking! Darlene carried her running into Sunday when she completed the Flying Pig Half Marathon in Ohio. Kelly from our crew ran it, too! Way to get it done, ladies!

RUN
This week, we share our “noisy” interview with race announcer and half of Team Noisy, cancer survivor, runner, inspiration, and author, Fitz Koehler.
We want to thank Fitz for the inspiring conversation in this episode. We hope you will give her book a listen or a read. It is so valuable. You will find the wisdom to help you, no matter where you are in life or what challenge you may be facing at the moment.
You can get it on her website, and she will autograph it for you! And, if you want to connect with Fitz, as she said in the chat, say hi and introduce yourself. Let her know you heard her on the Run Eat Drink Podcast. Links are here:

Fitz, if you are reading this now, thank you. Those words seem too small to express our appreciation for all the race experiences you create for all runners and the time you took to inspire the rest of the “Runcation Nation" and us on this week’s episode. We can’t wait to see you again at a finish line soon!
EAT & DRINK
As we like to do on our show when we have a special interview episode, we asked Fitz to tell us her favorite food and beverage options when we talked to her. Did they surprise you? Do you love the same things she does? Let us know!
