This week we discuss the Delaware Running Festival Marathon for a surprisingly scenic and chaotic adventure. Think riverside views, blooming cherry trees, and boardwalk miles—mixed with narrow starts, confusing signage, and a surprise landfill cameo. We cover race day fumbles, memorable runner meetups, and the highs and lows of a course that keeps you guessing. Come for the views, stay for the stories—and maybe pack your own finish line snacks. Because at this race, the real endurance test might be everything after mile 20.

Two marathons. Two days. Questionable life choices. The Des Moines marathon was quite the experience - from a stunning sunrise start by the capitol to looping Drake Stadium like champions (or survivors), this race had everything: bacon on a string, Fireball in Water Works Park, an orchestra still playing 5+ hours in… and yes, even garbage trucks mid-course. We pushed the 7-hour limit, fueled mostly by grit, KT tape, and Chipotle (again questionable life choice), and somehow made it to that sweet finish line. Was it pretty? Not always. Was it memorable? Absolutely.

Fast, flat, and full of charm—Fargo lives up to its “Best Small Town Race” reputation. Since its 2021 fall run, the course has evolved with more out-and-backs but still crosses into Minnesota and celebrates its Scandinavian roots. With multiple race options, a 7-hour limit, and a growing field, it’s a welcoming, quirky race weekend.

Marathon #71 took us back to the Myrtle Beach Marathon for a quick coastal weekend filled with big miles and even bigger memories. Race morning started under a blanket of sea fog before the sun came out and turned the day hot. Along the course, we met dynamic runners and soaked in the energy that makes marathons special. Off the course, the weekend was just as memorable—fresh seafood dinners, lively piano bars, and that unmistakable beach-town vibe. In this episode, we recap the foggy start, the warm miles, and the fun that made this Myrtle Beach marathon.

Today on the Mile 20 Podcast, we’re joined by our friend Bob Weinhold — family man, leader, and all-around endurance junkie. In his late 50s and still chasing big goals, Bob spends his time tackling ultra marathons, ice climbing frozen waterfalls, backpacking deep into the wilderness, and logging long miles on the bike.

In this episode, we talk about longevity, grit, staying curious, and what keeps him pushing the edge year after year. It’s a conversation about resilience, adventure, and redefining what’s possible at any age. Lace up — this one goes the distance.
