As we prepare for the Run with Meb!, which is just two short weeks away, we thought we would flashback to Meb’s conversation about his book, 26 Marathons: What I Learned About Faith, Identity, Running, and Life from My Marathon Career.
Run with Meb! is coming up on May 6, 2023, in Tampa, Florida. To find out more and register, visit: https://runsignup.com/Race/FL/Tampa/MEBFoundationRun.
Enjoy this flashback, and let us know if you have read his book.
At the 2019 Gasparilla Distance Classic Weekend, yes, we ran a half marathon, but we also got to catch up with an exceptional guest...Meb Keflezighi!
He is the only man to win the New York City Marathon (2009), an Olympic Silver Medal (Athens 2004), and the Boston Marathon (2014). We were so lucky to interview him before our race back in 2018 at Gasparilla. Liam, from Hawi Management, arranged for us to have a few minutes with a very busy Meb Keflezighi to talk about his new book, 26 Marathons: What I Learned About Faith, Identity, Running, and Life from My Marathon Career. Thank you, Liam!
Meb is such a humble and genuine man. He has gone through so much adversity and turned it into success. He knows so much more than how to win, train for, and complete distance races. He knows the importance of family and community. He is dedicated to sharing his knowledge, and this latest book is one way he does that. He supports other runners, no matter their level, and gives back to the sport endlessly. He even told us about a couple of races he is involved in California that offer anyone a chance to accomplish, explore, and indulge. I hope we get to do them soon!
We thank Meb for the precious time discussing these life lessons from the book and what he has on the horizon this year. We know from our talk that this book is not just for runners but for anyone looking to be successful in the marathon of life.
THAT’S A WRAP
