A behind-the-scenes look at Nike’s audacious attempt to break one
of the most formidable barriers in running—the sub-two-hour
marathon. We hear from the elite runners involved, members of the
Nike team working on the Breaking2 project, and we provide our own
perspective on the attempt. (2:34) Inside Broadway’s first a
cappella musical—In Transit. We talk to one of the show’s creators,
Sara Wordsworth, about how her own running experience helped her
create the running storyline that’s in the show. (28:06) In the
Kick, a pair of classic—and hard to find—running shoes goes for big
bucks when up for auction, a runner finds a great way to fit some
golf into his run schedule, and more tips for going long on the
treadmill. (59:18) This week's episode is brought to you by Jabra.
