Desi Linden joins the show less than 48 hours before running in the 122nd Boston Marathon. The chances of an American woman winning the race has never looked this good in recent years. Linden will be running in her sixth Boston. She has finished fourth in each of her previous two finishes yet she enters with an underdog mentality. She says there is no pressure on her with the incredible depth of the women's field. We headed to a Brooks Running press conference and chatted with Desi briefly about that and more in a mini episode of the podcast.
