Well, it’s finally here! Tim and Jess are getting ready to head to Japan for the Tokyo Marathon. Tim and Jess chat with Andy about their final preparations for the journey abroad as Tim goes for a new Marathon PR and Jess looks to complete her 6th Marathon in 6 months! Then, the trio briefly talks about the Winter Olympics, and who’s winning (or not winning) gold in Pyeongchang.
Next, Tim and Jess interview Olympian Leo Manzano, who scored silver in the 2012 games after executing his signature kick to take the lead. Leo shares his passion for launching the Manzano Mile and diversifying his involvement with the sport. We also here about Leo’s exploration of new distances, and his racing strategy when it comes to Track & Field.
