Jordan Hasay raised a lot of eyebrows with her 2:20:57 for third place during Sunday's Chicago Marathon to become the second-fastest American woman of all time over 26.2. I spoke with Jordan Hasay at length on Thursday morning for a story on Sports Illustrated, which I highly recommend that you check out. We titled it "Jordan Hasay Is On Her Way To Becoming America’s Next Great Marathoner" and she proved us right! No SI curse there.  I decided to take the audio file of the interview and share it with you listeners because of how special that performance was. The story has pretty much all the best parts of the interview but there were a few tidbits and cool quotes that I didn't know where to fit into the post so it was left on the editing floor. There's a little bit on how she was recruited to join the Nike Oregon Project, how she deals with the pressure of expectations, how running is still fun for her after being a phenom for so many years + much more. I won't do this very often since I usually like to keep quotes that I didn't use in a notebook for future projects. Decided to make an exception here, so enjoy!

Craig will be racing this weekend's Cow Harbor 10K but we decided to take it upon ourselves to congratulate him on his victory ahead of time. We discuss what it's like being one of the few people in his training group that's not gearing up for a fall marathon and knowing when the body is ready to move up to the 26.2 mile distance.  Craig will be focusing on the Rock 'N' Roll San Jose Marathon and so he shares his training for the race as well as how he approaches a 13-mile race mentally because it's not easy. Fun topics include the backstory behind LutzGrind, watching the hit Broadway show Hamilton, the Chicago Cubs. LetsRun comments and much more. He's got a very controversial answer about the best BBQ.

What's happening after 10 p.m. on a normal night? Get sleep instead! If it's a sports headline. Figure it out in the morning.  2. Eat regularly with a couple main meals. Keep the metabolism moving. I'm big on smoothies.  3. Know your body and make sure to take care of the little intricacies. Don't be lazy with stretching or knowing when to limber up.  You can catch the latest episode of the podcast on iTunes so subscribe and leave a five-star review.

Former Portland Pilot and NAZ Elite professional distance runner Scott Fauble joins the CITIUS MAG Podcast to chat as he trains for his marathon debut at this fall's Frankfurt Marathon. We talk everything from transitioning into road racing, envisioning making the Olympics, burritos, a wild story about Woody Kincaid (Bowerman track club runner and host of the Price of A Mile Podcast) and much more. Fauble dissects the wild and carnage-filled Olympic Trials 10K, where he finished fourth overall. At the Olympic Trials, the top three with the standard head to the Olympics and despite note having the standard, Fauble still had mixed feelings about his fourth-place showing. He's since focused on the roads and has fared very well and set several personal bests. He breaks down his strengths as a racer and aiming for the highest-finish possible at events.
