We start the show with a "Choose your own adventure" for Julie. She chooses to tell the story of the trip to Eugene Oregon for the 2022 World Championships for Track And Field. Both the hosts had a work trip to see the meet. Julie and Chris tell their stories of travel and juggling the work week with the family.
Our guests this week are the fastest Father/Son duo to ever run the Mile. John Gregorek who works Sports Marketing for Asics and Johnny Gregorek who runs for Asics and just ran the 1500 at the World Championships.
Julie and Chris talk to the pair about each of their experiences in Eugene. Johnny describes his experience as a competitor and John talks about his experience as a "host" with Asics and a Dad watching his son compete. We touch on John's running career in the 80's when we made 2 Olympic teams. We also talk to Johnny about his career as he now is in the best shape of his life. We close with the Father/Son duo talking about how Johnny has raised over $50k for the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
We close the show recapping the interview and let the audience know we are back on Instagram @Pacethenation !
