Ready, set go.

This is episode 53 with a 2016 indoor NCAA mile champion, four times all American, and a University of Virginia school record holder in the 1500 meters, Mr Henry Wynne. Hey everyone it's Jason and today I'm excited to be back in your ears talking

about how to race the mile we have Henry Wynne on the pod today, a sub four

miler who in the last year has gone pro and now runs for the Brooks Beast's track club

in Seattle. Henry has an unusual origin story.

He's actually a former lacrosse player who had no interest in running, but his parents

encouraged him to stick with the sport in high school, actually exactly how I started running, except Henry's a lot faster

than I am. Fast forward about 10 years later, and today he's a school record holder in the

1500 at the University of Virginia. He's elite athlete sponsored by Brooks and an

incredible journey to the top by Henry and you know we're going to talk a lot more about that

on today's episode but really what we're going to talk a lot more about that on today's episode, but really what we're going to do is go into more detail on the training required to race a fast mile, the mindset that's needed, and the race strategies that are most effective for the short fast event.

I also want to say thank you to an anonymous listener who left a podcast review on iTunes under the name addicted.

This person said,

I'm quickly becoming addicted to this podcast

and have immersed myself in the info.

The program is great for new and veteran runners. I learn a little. in the

info program is great for new and veteran runners. I learn a little bit from each episode

regardless of the topic even if I think it may not apply to my specific skill level.

She goes on to say I first listens to episode 42 and it helped me start turning things

around. Every episode since has offered a valuable takeaway. Thanks for getting me out of my head and back into my sport.

Man, I love this.

Addicted, it's my pleasure.
