What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Listened to the Josh Kerr WR podcast on a five miler and honestly, I finally see why people listen to this on their run. It’s fun to have something playing that’s running related and not just music or background noise. The podcast was fuel for the soul and I can truly appreciate the Citius Mag podcast full circle now. Thanks Chris 🔥

mr.saladbar19 · Jul 2026

I’ve been a listener for a while now, enjoy nerding out while I hear Chris and Preet break down race performances and speculate on future ones. Love the data driven estimates but also the intuition of the hosts. Imagine my surprise while I was doing my long run on the Central Park loop and I look up and see Chris running towards me looking while his voice was in my ear!

Sarah Alaska · Feb 2026

I’ve been listening for a long time now and with the whole crew back together at Millrose (yay Kyle!) was exactly what we all needed. The banter and analysis is perfection. 👍🏼

ceiderann · Feb 2026

This is a show I didn’t know I needed. I’ve been a runner for a long time but had never followed the professional sport outside of the Olympics and marathon majors. Chris and the team bring a ton of knowledge and energy to the sport and have me following it all year long. Their athlete interviews get you into the minds of the athletes - the highs, the lows, and everything in between. Listening to the pod is like hanging out with your buddies to talk about this beautiful sport. Thanks for all you do.
