"The first step towards achieving something is believing you can do it" -ES Our featured guest Evan Schwartz has become excellent at taking life's challenges in stride. Years ago Evan was a member of both the Cross Country and Track & Field team for The Ohio State University. Early on in his transition from a high school athlete to collegiate athlete, he experienced a setback with his first big running injury. His resiliency as a distance runner proved true as he was able to bounce back the following season with excellent races. The following season Ohio State experienced a couple of coaching changes bringing about change for Evan as well, leaving him off of the university roster for not being fast enough. Frustrated but determined to continue following his passion, Evan joined the Columbus Running Company team where he began to reveal his true potential as a distance runner. Evan has recently seen a change in scenery and is now living in Boulder, Colorado where he is training for the 2020 Olympic Trials in the marathon. Please join us to hear how Evan went from getting cut from his collegiate team to qualifying for the Olympic Trials in the marathon.   Marathon 2:18.19 Evan's Book Suggestions: Marathon Man & Freakonomics   1609 Podcast https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-1609-podcast/id1265363723?mt=2   Sponsors: Audible: Get a FREE audiobook download and 30 day free trial at http://www.audibletrial.com/runtheglobewithus2018 Over 180,000 titles to choose from for your iPhone, Android, Kindle or mp3 player.
