Episode 6: Gabriel Romero
from Why We Marathon Hosted by Alex Elman
Gabriel talks about growing up poor, his father walking out on Gabriel's family at age 12, and how marathon running helped Gabriel redeem his self worth. Gabriel also digs into how marathon running is all mental and how he still struggles with his diet but is constantly working to improve his health. We touch on how karma and being a good person helped Gabriel get into the Boston Marathon. My favorite line from the podcast is "Your attitude determines your outcome." Gabriel says that he's going to get it done no matter what this takes. He adds that there's no shame in walking which we totally agree with on the podcast. Gabriel also speaks about how marathon racing has taken him all over the world to the Tokyo Marathon, Kingston Marathon in Jamaica, and many more! And we even cover the toilet situation in Tokyo too!
