    Curating An Elite Athlete Experience w/ Zach Ornelas

    We’re kicking off the year with one of our favorite returning guests, Zach Ornelas. Zach is a 2:16:01 marathoner, 2x time Olympic trials marathon qualifier and the Elite Coordinator for the Detroit Free Press Marathon. Zach and I got to chat while we were in Austin for the Spurs Austin International Half Marathon last weekend. Our conversation today focuses on curating the elite athlete experience. With our experience being a part of elite fields throughout the country we chat about what attracts us to particular elite fields, what’s the bare minimum, and little things that make it worth it. Zach provides us with valuable insight on what goes on to bring these fields together and his experience coordinating the elite fields at Detroit. Like the podcast?

  7. From Setbacks to Triumph: Alex Burks

    27/01/2024

    From Setbacks to Triumph: Alex Burks

    In Spring of 2021, Alex had a breakthrough performance at the first McKirdy Micro Marathon. He ran 2:16:51, destroying his personal best and running a time that would be under the eventual Olympic Trials qualifying standard of 2:18:00. The problem? The standard window hadn't started. Over the next two years he would take multiple shots at the standard and would come up short on the day. After four attempts at it, he would line up for his last shot this past October, less than two months before the window closed. Alex takes us through his journey, going into detail on his mentality, the adjustments he made, and everything that led to his last shot back at Rockland State Park, back to where it all started those few short years ago. We talk about his build, adjusting to altitude, race day, qualifying for the Olympic Trials, and about his preparations for his next race, the Olympic Trials Marathon this February. And of course we have to end out the podcast as we always do, with off the wall questions. Now available wherever you get your podcasts. Be sure to like, share, and subscribe.
