Summary

Amos Bartelsmeyer joins the CITIUS MAG Podcast just days after he ran a 3:55 mile at the Washington Indoor Preview Meet. Not too many people knew who he was so we went looking for some answers. We delve into his background and how he started running while in middle school in Missouri, how he landed at Georgetown, why he decided to continue trying to run professionally and his plans to compete for Germany internationally. We also touch on how he started working with coach Andy Powell. ----- The CITIUS MAG Podcast is brought to you by Strava. Personally, I believe Strava is the best app for runners and cyclists to keep track of all their training. It helps keep me accountable as I get ready for the 2019 Tokyo Marathon in March. I've been using Strava Summit, which includes extra features with their training an analysis packs. Right now, CITIUS MAG Podcast listeners have a chance to try those Summit features go to www.strava.com/summit and enter the code citius (all lowercase) at checkout while purchasing an annual subscription. It's like you're getting your first month free! Follow me on Strava: www.strava.com/athletes/13479304 Join the CITIUS MAG Track Club: www.strava.com/clubs/citiusmag
