The topics include:

• Why is Molly Huddle is the presumed favorite? Do you agree or disagree?
• Do you believe this is the end for Shalane Flanagan? If Shalane wins Boston and you’re her, would you retire on top?
• Why isn’t Jordan Hasay the favorite?

NOTE: This show was recorded before Jordan Hasay withdrew from the race due to a stress reaction in her foot but David was prophetic.

• Desi Linden is back in a dark horse role. Why should we not count her out of the race?
• Galen Rupp is back after a second place finish. Is it good or bad for the sport if he wins?
• What other U.S. storylines interest you?
• There’s a charity runner completing the marathon backwards. Is it impressive to you?
• Who else do you know that is running?
