#188 Rory Linkletter - Final Thoughts: Chasing the North American Record of 2:05:36 at the Chicago Marathon

On this episode, the boys had Rory Linkletter back on for his final thoughts leading into the Chicago Marathon this weekend. The Canadian and North American Marathon record was set by legend Cam Levins and sits at 2:05:36. We do a deep dive into Rory's training block, which he rated a 9/10, where he thinks he has found the fitness to go after this time.We also chatted about competing against Connor Mantz, and Rory told us what would be going through his head if him and Mantz were together with a mile to go. They will likely be running a large portion of this race together considering the American record is only 2 seconds slower than the Canadian record. If you weren't excited for Chicago yet, this episode will get you there.
