My guest today is Brogan Austin, marathon runner currently based in Boulder, CO. Brogan’s list of accomplishments in running are many and this year he was a participant in the 2020 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials, a spot he earned by winning the 2018 USATF Marathon Championships at CIM in a time of 2:12:39. We talk about that US Championship race and I specifically enjoyed diving into his mindset on the starting line, coming in as the 19th ranked runner in the race. We also talk about his early days in Iowa, darker points in his running career, and how the drive and determination to pull himself up and accomplish what he knew he was capable of landed him a spot on the wildly popular Tinman Elite team for Adidas. It is a fantastic episode, and I had a lot of fun chatting with Brogan there in Boulder.  Connect with Brogan Instagram | Strava | Tinman Elite on YouTube Connect with us Aaron Insta | Ryan Insta | Aaron Strava | Ryan Strava Tempo Talks Strava Group
