I'll Have Another with Lindsey Hein Podcast

Kellyn Taylor is back on the podcast after a huge few weeks of racing. She won the Austin Marathon in 2:33 and then turned around and ran 2:27 for second place at the LA Marathon. Kellyn called LA the hardest marathon course she has ever raced, which makes that result even more impressive.

Kellyn is one of the most respected marathoners in the sport, with five top-10 finishes at the New York City Marathon and several close calls at the Olympic Trials. She is also a mom of four and is now stepping into a brand new chapter after being accepted into the Fire Academy, something she has dreamed about for a long time. Kellyn talks about both marathons, what this season has looked like, and what it means to keep chasing big goals in running while also preparing for a demanding new career.
