On this episode of Le Run Down I chatted with my good friend and training buddy Geoff McGregor. Growing up in British Columbia he took a liking to music and eventually got into endurance sports.
It was through sport that he learned that hard work leads to positive results. Those same life lessons translated into the world of ultra running.
I consider Geoff to be one of the strongest runners I know both through his ability to tackle big training weeks and also his mental toughness. He’s got a drive to succeed at everything he does, yet somehow always finds a way to make it fun and enjoyable for those around him.
