Summary
This is the episode for all back-of-the-pack or larger-size runners—or anyone who wants to be invigorated by an amazing human being: guest Martinus Evans, author of Slow AF Run Club and founder of the website/app of the same name. With hosts Sarah and Tish, Martinus details:
-how he fell off the back of a treadmill on his first-ever run;
-why crossing the finish line of his first (of 8) marathons was “bittersweet”;
-being targeted by hecklers in races because of his pace;
-gear recommendations for larger runners; and,
-why he believes the world of running needs an overhaul.
Tish talks about running in the sweltering South before Martinus jumps on around 7:47.
