S4E1 - Hal Higdon interview - 94 years of running wisdom

Today is Friday, October 3rd, 2025 and this week in 2016, legendary runner and writer Hal Higdon published his book “Run Fast,” a comprehensive guide for runners looking to improve their speed and reach new PRs.

 

In this episode, I sit down with Higdon himself to discuss a few of the incredible contributions he’s made to the world of running in his 94 years of life so far.
