Today’s show is a very different from past episodes. First of all, although I did invite a guest to help me with the show, it is not an interview. Second, this episode isn’t focused on masters running, although some of the runners we discuss are masters runners.

I’ve always been fascinated and entertained by stories of runners who cheat, so I thought it would be entertaining to compile a list of some of the most infamous race cheats of all time. This episode ended up being very long, so I broke it into two parts. Today’s episode covers two honorable mention cheaters along with numbers 10-6. Tune in to the next episode for the final countdown to the most notorious race cheaters of all time!
