Summary

“That understanding—that you have to create your own value—is something that was weird to me at first, because I thought that I had value, but I didn’t. I was a 28:40 [10K] guy out of college, and had been All-American a few times, but there’s like 40 guys who do that every single year, so why would anyone take an extra interest in me? So that would be my advice to anyone who is trying to be a professional runner: really sit down and really think about where your niche is, and look at people who have created their own niches...because there are only so many spots on an Olympic team or a world team or a podium, you know?”Burrito connoisseur and 2:12 marathoner Scott Fauble comes on the podcast to discuss the movement he's trying to create around his favorite food (1:20), the business of being a professional runner (9:00), the launch of a new project he's calling "Off Course,” (25:45), training for, racing, and recovering from his first marathon (39:35), and so much more.This episode of the morning shakeout podcast was edited by John Isaac at BaresRecords.com.Complete show notes here: http://themorningshakeout.com/podcast-episode-1-scott-fauble/Sign up here to get the morning shakeout email newsletter delivered directly to your inbox every Tuesday morning: http://themorningshakeout.com/subscribe/Support the morning shakeout on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themorningshakeout

0:00.0	Scott Boble, welcome to the podcast.
0:03.0	Thanks, it's, thanks for having me, Mario.
0:05.0	It's, it looks, I'm excited to be here.
0:07.0	This is a somewhat seminal moment for the morning shakeout as you are my first guest.
0:13.0	Oh wow.
0:14.0	So not to put you on the spot or anything, but this is going to be an experimentation of sorts and I'm really
0:20.4	excited to see where the conversation takes us.
0:23.1	So let's get rolling here.
0:25.8	I've got a lot to talk about.
0:28.9	I was debating where I wanted to start.
0:30.5	I think the most logical place seems like the Frankfurt marathon given that you, you know, you just ran that and clocked to 212 and is the 12 fastest American debut of all time. But that's, I mean, I think that's too easy. I want to talk about
0:45.4	burritos. I know that's a big part of your life. You just just last week launched the Burrito mafia and I'm still not sure
0:58.8	what to think about it so I'd like you to tell me a little bit more about this little passion of yours and this new endeavor
1:05.0	called the Burrito mafia.
1:07.0	Okay, well I mean there's the obvious fact that burritos are the single greatest food known to man, but more specifically I guess the
1:21.2	the burrito Mafia stemmed from this thing where I tweeted a lot about
1:28.8	Burritos and then as I got more followers, they started, other people started tweeting burrito pictures back at me.
1:38.0	And I thought it was kind of funny and I was talking to a friend of mine and we were just kind of like we should explore this and we should see kind of where this takes us and so I sat down and I wrote a piece about just kind of how the whole
1:59.2	breedo thing started what the origin story was like why breedos are important to me personally like for
2:07.2	greater reasons than just being delicious foods and then from there it was kind of like why, like how can we make this something like that is interesting
2:22.1	to share and make this into sort of a community thing and
2:28.3	so we just kind of morphed that original piece about why we thought burritos were important into this burrito mafia and it kind of was like it was just something that we thought would be funny and cool and like
