85: Sour Candy, Solo Miles, and the Making of Noogs w/ Paige Foote

85: Sour Candy, Solo Miles, and the Making of Noogs w/ Paige Foote

This week, I’m joined by Paige Foote, who ran her first marathon on a half-mile loop at an Air Force base after the 2020 NYC Marathon was canceled. We talk about what it was like training solo during lockdown, fueling with sour candy and Rice Krispie treats, and turning her make-it-work marathon into the idea that would later become Noogs.

She shares how her second marathon—the real NYC race in 2021—gave her the full finish line magic she missed the first time. From accidentally meeting a long-run buddy at mile 20 to bonding with other first-time marathoners in the start village, Paige’s story is a great example of how much running can change when you do it alongside other people. We also get into how a viral TikTok helped Noogs take off and what it’s been like growing a brand while still running for fun.
