In episode forty-six of The Running Effect (with Dominic Schlueter), I speak with Ben Flanagan. Ben most recently ran the Houston Half Marathon, running 61:38 (4:39 per mile average) on a broken toe!
In this episode, we go through Ben's most recent BIG news which is him signing with On and joining The Very Nice Track Club. We do a deep dive into these decisions and his future! We also touch on his 2021 season, his biggest ups and downs, and all that he learned from it. Ben's positive spirit on and off the track is contiguous. Look out for Ben in 2022 to do some big things!

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to this week's episode of the Running Effect with Dominic's Leader. |
| 0:07.2 | I'm Dominic, and I am so glad that you are listening to this episode of the show. |
| 0:12.4 | We have a reoccurring guest this week, Ben Flanagan, and I highly recommend checking out |
| 0:16.9 | the first episode I did with him way back when, when we went through his backstory in Canada, |
| 0:23.1 | his years at Michigan, and then his years at Reebok. That is a really great insight into his |
| 0:29.1 | backstory in the sport of running, whereas today we do a real big deep dive into his most recent |
| 0:35.4 | news, huge news, which is him signing with on running and joining |
| 0:39.4 | the very nice track club headed by Nick Willis, Hobbs Kessler, and Ronnie Warhurst. |
| 0:45.4 | Also, I forgot to mention Mason Furlich, who made the Olympic team this past year. |
| 0:50.2 | So we go through that big news, and then we do a deep dive into his 2021 season, him missing the Olympics, |
| 0:56.5 | but using that as fuel for an amazing road racing season, and then all he has planned for |
| 1:01.8 | 2022. And then we top it off with a fun addition of the rapid fire questions. So a special |

| 1:11.3 | I really appreciate it. |
| 1:12.4 | Always have a blast having him on the show. |
| 1:14.4 | So I look forward to having him on more this year as he rewrites the Canadian history books on the roads, hopefully, as he talks a little bit about in this episode. |
| 1:23.9 | But with that being said, I hope you all enjoy this episode as much as I did. Here's my conversation with the man the myth, the legend, Ben Flanagan. |
| 1:31.3 | Ben, welcome back to the Running Effect podcast. How have you been? |
| 1:39.3 | Doing great, Dominic. Thanks for having you back. I'm supposed to be here today. |
| 1:46.1 | So for those who haven't listened to our first episode with each other, which I highly recommend, they check out, especially because it's more of a backstore, more of a look into your backstory in the sport. |
| 1:57.0 | And I'll leave a link in the show notes. Can you give our listeners who didn't listen to that episode a brief introduction of who |
| 2:03.6 | you are and your history in the sport of running? |
