Joan Benoit Samuelson

Joan Benoit Samuelson

The Joan Benoit Samuelson story parallels that classic Nike Ad “There is no finish line”. Joan is an icon, a legend in women’s long distance running. Through her many decades in the sport, Joan has never stopped challenging herself with competitive goals, running with the same passion that gave her an Olympic Gold Medal in 1984 at the first Women’s Olympic Marathon in LA. Her interview starts in her early running days as she discovers her talent, then winning the 1979 Boston Marathon, running in college, and as a professional with Athletics West. She talks about the drama and uncertainty of the 1984 Olympic Trials, and later her win in the Olympic Games. Her story is both thrilling and inspirational. And now, in her 5th decade as a runner, she continues to train and race in the sport she loves. We learn how she trained over the years. Her need from the beginning to find balance in her life in order to have success. The coaches that helped her along the way and the stories of her training and racing that brought her the greatest of successes. An Olympic Gold Medal.
