from Running Scared Media

On part 1 of my conversation with 5Peaks National Race Director Jacob Puzey, we go back to beginning. Jacob describes his rural upbringing in the American Southwest and Pacific Northwest, explaining how his background in agriculture and community shaped his values. We explore Puzey’s transition to Canada in 2015, motivated in part by his family and desire for a different environment. He reflects on his evolution as a runner, moving from a struggling middle school athlete to an elite competitor focused on personal accountability. Finally, Puzey details his preference for steady, runnable terrain, linking his physiological traits to his success in flat-surface endurance events like his treadmill world record.- For a great trail race experience go To: https://www.5peaks.comUse code RUNNINGSCARED10 for a 10% discount at 5Peaks events. - For great trail wear and hydration go to: https://www.ostrichrunning.com/WANT TO SAVE MONEY?SUBSCRIBE TO OUR AFFORDABILITY EMAIL FLYER AT: HEREFull Transcript: HERESupport the showSubscribe to Running Scared Media wherever you get your podcasts for more episodes!RunningScaredMedia.comVisit our shop to purchase our jogcasts and other merchEmail us at: [email protected] us:Instagram @runningscaredmediaJoin our FB Running Group
