Tania (@this_phoenix_runs on Instagram). gave us a fantastic episode about the MCM weekend. She’s back for a bonus discussion that we wanted to share this week from the time when we stopped recording, but there was so much more to share!
The Penguin Award at Marine Corps Marathon
It’s in honor of Maj. Megan McClung (KIA 2006)— it symbolizes the belief that finishing is what matters in this or any race! Here is a link to a video that highlights this award and its history:
https://www.marines.mil/News/Marines-TV/videoid/490355/dvpTag/run/.
It is called that, as the video says, because Megan was reading and following John Bingham, who we have seen on several documentaries like Spirit of the Marathon. John Bingham had a website called the Penguin Chronicles, and people can find out more about him at http://www.johnbingham.com.
We found the 2023 winner of the award on https://www.dvidshub.net/image/8094953/48th-marine-corps-marathon-penguin-award. We have requested permission to use the photo in this episode’s artwork.

U.S. Marine leaders and Marine Corps Marathon officials pose for a photo with the 2023 Penguin Award winner, Soon Kim, in Arlington, Virginia, Oct. 29, 2023. Kim completed the 48th Marine Corps Marathon with a time of 06:40:41. The Penguin award is presented annually to the MCM’s last finisher in honor of Maj’s life and service. Megan McClung.

Ever found yourself chuckling with a first responder while clutching an ice pack?
On this week’s Run Eat Drink Podcast episode, we truly capture that spirit with our vibrant guest, Kristin Ceneviva-Iovene. She's not your everyday EMT; her theatrical zest breathes life into patient care and provides a dose of laughter when it's needed most. We get a glimpse into Kristin’s Connecticut roots, her love for being an EMT, and how her artistic talents spark joy during the most stressful situations. It's a riveting blend of health insights and humor that will leave you feeling both enlightened and entertained.
Imagine sprinting through a fairy tale, tiara and all, alongside loved ones at the RunDisney Princess Half Marathon. We dive into the enchantment of this inclusive event and how it strengthens family bonds, all while navigating the hurdles of the registration process. Kristin shares our costume strategies, gear essentials, and training tips for tackling these whimsical runs. Don't miss her anecdotes about the magic of racing through Disney parks, where every mile is sprinkled with pixie dust, and even the expo feels like a ride of its own.
To close, we celebrate the unique traditions that come with crossing the half marathon finish line, from the jubilation of post-race feasts at allergy-friendly eateries to the support we share as part of the Runcation Nation. But it's not all medals and merriment; Kristin opens up about navigating her current injury. We rally around her resilience, and like any good running buddy, we offer encouragement for the road ahead, looking forward to the next adventure once her comeback tale is complete. Join us for laughs, lessons, and a lot of heart in this week's episode.

As dawn broke over the iconic New York City skyline, she couldn't help but feel a mix of nerves and excitement—the cocktail of emotions that Ana from @Ana_Runs_on_Coffee described as she boarded the bus to the marathon starting line. Clad in mylar blankets and loaded with carb-rich strategies, she joins us for a second episode to continue recounting the pre-marathon rituals that set the stage for 26.2 miles of urban adventure. Hear how her preparation unfolded into an orchestra of precision, emotion, and community spirit found only in the crowds of runners poised at the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, ready to conquer the concrete jungle.
The crowd's energy is an intangible yet potent force, and this episode captures the essence of that support alongside the critical topic of marathon fueling. With anecdotes of energy gels and the sweet taste of success (or sometimes, just too much sugar), Ana dissects the tightrope walk of maintaining energy levels without stomach upsets. Glimpse into the heartwarming tales of spectator ingenuity and discover how the cheers of strangers can propel you through the physical challenge and emotional highs of passing each mile marker.
Post-race, the euphoria is palpable as we share the tales of her New York City Marathon experience, from the tear-streaked joy of crossing the finish line to the gastronomic bliss of a well-earned burger. Our journey concludes with brunch at Tiffany's Blue Box Cafe, a treasured photo by the mile 26 marker, and the comical mishaps of a much-needed coffee fix. Join us on this exhilarating tour of perseverance and celebration that encapsulates the marathon spirit, and perhaps you'll be inspired to lace up your running shoes for your next big race.

It is true; we just completed a fun race weekend with the Runcation Nation at the Gasparilla Distance Classic in Tampa, but we have to talk about Dana’s hometown for one more week on the show because this week, we are lucky enough to chat with Meb Keflezighi about his inaugural race coming up in May, the Run with Meb! Benefiting the MEB Foundation. This event features a 1-mile, 5K, and 10K offering, both in-person in Tampa and Virtual. Meb told us all about it. Thank you, Meb, for putting it together and taking the time to talk with us about this first annual event. We can’t wait to run it with you. Or, more accurately, at the back of your pack in Al Lopez Park in May! Save us a high five at the finish!

EAT & DRINK
Wood Fired is a pizza and wine bar near the University of South Florida in Tampa. It is a small and quaint place that is huge in flavor! We had salads, appetizers, and pizza that were so flavorful! We recommend this place if you are scouting colleges or heading to Busch Gardens in Tampa. In addition, there are local craft beers on tap and a wide range of wines on the menu, from less expensive to higher-end choices. We went with a glass of house wine, and it was delicious.
THAT’S A WRAP!

However, thank you to Andi and Mike Sharp, who told us you better get there immediately or you will be waiting long. This place is worth the wait. We break down what we had and why you MUST check this place out when coming to the Jacksonville area.

EAT
Cinottis Bakery is a recommendation from Mike and Andi Sharp. It was a bustling Saturday morning as we came for post-race breakfast to celebrate the 5K. The staff is so knowledgeable and excellent. The breakfast sandwiches and burritos are tasty… but that bakery case.. oh my goodness! Take some back to the hotel with you. You will not be sorry. Whether sweet or savory breakfast is your thing, this is a staple you can’t miss!

In this special edition of our show, we talk with a legend in the running community, Boston Marathon Race Director Dave McGillivray. It was an honor and privilege to have him back on the show.
When you go to davemcgillivray.com, you are greeted with a YouTube video that only scratches the surface of the hard work and dedication of the first-ever charity runner.
From his storied run across the US in 1978 to benefit the Jimmy Fund to his time as Boston Marathon Race Director since the 1980s, he has found a way to marry running with supporting those in need. We loved his book, The Last Pick: The Boston Marathon Race Director’s Road to Success, and now he has donated that and a few others to our auction, benefitting The Donna Foundation in its mission to finish breast cancer.
This week, he discusses what inspires him to give back through running. We can’t thank him enough for his inspirational stories and words of encouragement. We are grateful for the donations of his autographed books to our online auction for The Donna Foundation.
Thank you, Dave McGillivray!
