Ashton Swinford - From 3:20 to OTQ
Ashton Swinford joins the podcast fresh off qualifying for the 2028 Olympic Trials at Indy Monumental. Ashton is an Ohio Northern alum who never broke 20 minutes in the 5K in college, now she's heading to the Trials.
The crazy part is 20 days ago she won the Columbus Marathon in 2:38:04 which was a personal best at the time.
She knew she was close to OTQ so she headed to Indy for an OTQ attempt. She ran 2:36:51 at Indy Monumental to get under the 2:37 barrier!
Her journey didn't come easy as she has spent the 10 years chipping away at her marathon time. She takes us through her marathon progression, what her training looks like, how she handled the stagnation, and what she's looking forward to next!
