Ep95 - Erik Sowinski (3-time US Champ) Is Every Runner's Favorite Runner — Pacing World Records and PBs Galore + The Business of Pacing

We're joined by track and field legend, Erik Sowinski. Erik is a 3-time US champion, has run under 1:47 over 100 times, and is the man to thank for many athletes' records and personal bests as the track and field's most notable pace setter (rabbit). We discuss his long, successful career which includes 16 US finals and pacing world records like Jakob Ingebrigtsen's 1500m indoor world record of 3:30.6. We also talk about the business of being a pacer, not having a shoe sponsor for the last two years, repping Bell Lap Track & Field, Spotted Cow beer, and much more.
