    Audio issues detract; enjoyable interviews
    Claire has a charming personality and relates well to non-elite runners. I particularly liked the recent interview with Jen Scotney and all the episodes with Tim Pigott. However, the terrible audio quality makes this podcast very hard on the listeners' ears. Please spend the very modest sum needed to get even a budget podcaster/YouTuber microphone set-up (not a headset mic or laptop mic), adjust your audio settings appropriately, etc. It's very easy and inexpensive, and would make a world of difference for your listeners. I skip most episodes because of the harsh audio. Thanks, and best wishes!
