Monthly Running, a running podcast about people running with passion, is hosted by SBS Sports News Department track and field reporter Lee Jung-chan, who has completed two full marathons, and Won Hyung-seok (Stone), creator of the running YouTube channel <262wave>. From masters runners close to elite records to elite athletes pushing their limits, we discuss trending stories from the running scene. This segment focuses on the Gyeongbu Ekiden Marathon Remastering Project, which has recently drawn a lot of attention on the <262wave> channel.

The Gyeongbu Ekiden Marathon was Korea's largest long-distance relay marathon event, held for 61 years from 1955 to 2016, but it was discontinued after the 2016 race due to various practical issues. To remember its history, a project was carried out in which six runners took turns running a 543km distance from Busan City Hall to Imjingak in Paju over two days.

Kim Young-jin, a coach for the Gyeongbu City Hall track and field team (Note: Gyeonggi Provincial Government athletic team) who competed in the Gyeongbu Ekiden Marathon for 16 consecutive years from 2001 to 2016 and won the MVP award twice, also appeared on the show to share vivid anecdotes from his time competing in the event.
