Summary

Back for his third appearance on the podcast is the man, the myth, the legend, Sean McGorty. Sean is fresh off of making his first US national team in the 10k!

Last Friday, Sean placed third in USATF 10k National Championships. This race was as thrilling as they come. Sean was in sixth with 110m to go and he used a monster kick to make his dream come true of representing his country on a global stage.

Sean has had five significant surgeries in the last five years. When many people would have thrown in the towel, Sean kept working and dreaming. Setback after setback couldn’t hold Sean back. Some call him the King of Comebacks.

This episode was a really fun one! Sean and I both basically had a 47min conversation and it just happened to be recorded (: nothing too serious or formal, just two friends talking about some recent events! We also go through your listener questions. We even take one from the legend himself Mathew Centrowitz. Please like, subscribe, and share with your friends to help us out! You can also give us a five-star review on Spotify (:

0:00.0	Welcome to this week's episode of the Running Effect with Dominic Schleader. I'm your host
0:07.9	Dominic. And before we get into today's inspiring conversation of the show, I would really appreciate it if you
0:14.6	liked, subscribe, share the show, and in addition to doing those things, gave us a five-star review on
0:20.3	Spotify. That way, the show is
0:22.2	easier to discover for people who haven't discovered the show in the past, and hopefully
0:26.3	they can be inspired by the show, as I know many of you listeners are. In today's episode of
0:32.2	the show, I have back on for his third appearance on the podcast, The Man the Myth, the Legend,
0:37.3	Sean McGordy.
0:38.5	Sean is fresh off of making his first U.S. national team in the 10K, exactly one week ago on Friday
0:45.8	night from recording this episode. So last Friday, Sean placed third in the USATF 10K national
0:52.2	championships. This race was really as thrilling as they come,
0:56.0	and I'm sure you can find a race replay somewhere on Google.
0:59.5	Sean was sixth in sixth place with 110 meters to go,
1:03.6	and Sean used this monster kick to make his dream come true
1:06.9	of representing his country on a global stage.
1:09.6	He finished third in that race, which means he
1:11.7	will be sent to this year's world championships in Eugene, Oregon, in the 10K, which is so, so
1:17.2	exciting. So, Sean and I do really a deep dive on the past three months. Last time he was on the
1:22.8	podcast was three months ago, I believe. So we go through training and preparation leading into this race.
1:28.2	And then we go through this race itself, some of the lessons he's learned from many, many
1:33.2	setbacks over the years.
1:34.4	Sean has had, I think, five significant surgeries in the last five years.
