    <description>Hamstrings and Heartstrings is two friends, Chris and Ellie, catching up and having some straight running talk. One of us is real competitive with our running and the other is pretty chill. We'll leave it as an exercise to the listener to decide who is who. The answer may not be the same for each episode!
We promise to mostly talk about running and running-related things but don't be surprised if some general nerdery sneaks in. And definitely expect talk about what we're eating. Afterall, Food is running related!

      <itunes:subtitle>Chris and Ellie are back! We recorded a little late this week since Ellie's booking agent booked her PR tour over our regular recording spot. But that's cool because it gave our running chat a little bit more time to marinate. (You should check her out on Ridge Runners Podcast) We chat about how running things are going well for us, give some supporter shout-outs, and then we talk about those little things about running that make us feel really, really great. And the food segment brings us a tale of home-baked pretzel bites and dark cocoa overload!</itunes:subtitle>
