Erika Kemp After Running 2:22:56 To Set An 11-Minute PB + Achieve The World Championship Standard At The Houston Marathon | Race Recap + Reflections

Grayson Murphy joins the CITIUS MAG Podcast to discuss her first six months as a professional runner with Northern Arizona Elite. We go back to her roots as a soccer player before she finally started competitively running as a walk-on for Santa Clara. She really burst onto the NCAA scene after transferring to Utah and becoming a steeplechaser. Now as a professional, she's working on focusing on the 5,000 and 10,000 meters. Most importantly, she's been spreading positivity with her journaling. Grayson shares why she started selling training journals + planners and how it helped her cope with anxiety. Plus: Her funniest drug testing story might be the best one that we've ever had on the show.

Amos Bartelsmeyer joins the CITIUS MAG Podcast just days after he ran a 3:55 mile at the Washington Indoor Preview Meet. Not too many people knew who he was so we went looking for some answers. We delve into his background and how he started running while in middle school in Missouri, how he landed at Georgetown, why he decided to continue trying to run professionally and his plans to compete for Germany internationally. We also touch on how he started working with coach Andy Powell. ----- The CITIUS MAG Podcast is brought to you by Strava.

Kate Murphy joins the CITIUS MAG Podcast for her first interview since announcing her decision to medically retire from the sport at 19 years old. She is currently a student at the University of Oregon. Before arriving in Eugene, she was one of the most accomplished high school runners in recent years. She attended Lake Braddock High School in Virginia and was a four-time state champion. She competed at the World Junior Championships for the U.S. She ran 9:10.51 in the 3K, which is up there on the all-time high school lists. Despite all that success, she never got to race in an Oregon singlet after being diagnosed and treated with popliteal artery entrapment syndrome and undergoing two procedures on her legs. We discuss what went into that decision, how she's doing now, the pressures of being so fast while so young, plus advice for Katelyn Tuohy (who is currently one of the top high school stars in the country) ----- The CITIUS MAG Podcast is brought to you by Strava.

Scott Fauble joins the CITIUS MAG Podcast (Presented by Strava) to discuss his new book, Inside A Marathon, which you can read an excerpt of the book on our site now. Scott is coming off a seventh place finish at the New York City Marathon in November and clocked a personal best of 2:12:28. On Tuesday, it was announced that he will be running in the 2019 Boston Marathon. We delve into the process of writing a book with his coach Ben Rosario, how the idea came about and where he drew inspiration from. There's an Ernest Hemingway mention so stick around for that. Scott puts us in his shoes for the New York City Marathon race for top American that wasn't seen much on television. We also address some of the criticism that American men's marathoners have received in the past year for lack of times under 2:10. Why that doesn't matter to Scott and why the 2020 U.S. Olympic Trials are going to be a crazy race. We also touch on the 2018 Boston Marathon fields that were announced. Scott has the eighth-fastest time on paper but we conclude that he's definitely among the top three Americans going into the race. We take your listener questions. A lot of questions were asked about Scott's expertise in burritos including a power ranking of the top four Portland burrito spots. ----- The CITIUS MAG Podcast is brought to you by Strava.

Camille Herron joins the show after she ran at the the Desert Solstice Invitational at a local high school in Phoenix. It's not your average track meet at a high school. It was a 24-hour track race. She ran a stunning 162.9 miles over 24 hours and finished her first 100 miles in 13 hours and 25 minutes, both new world records on a track. Herron only started focusing on ultrarunning in 2015 after her successful marathon career, in which she won 21 events and qualified for the trials three times. The Oklahoma City native won the Comrades Marathon, a grueling 89K race in South Africa, in 2017, and she entered the Desert Solstice after scratching from several races due to a femur injury. Only 33 runners were invited to compete in the meet, which serves as a qualifier for the 24-hour U.S. national team. (Competitors had to previously run at least 124 miles in 24 hours or 100 miles in less than 17 hours and 30 minutes.) I caught up with Herron on Tuesday for this interview, which initially ran as a Q&A that you can read on SI.com – the link is in the show notes. Now for my podcast listeners, this is the full interview. Uncut. So you get a little extra than what's online to read. We discuss her training, performance and how Taco Bell and beer helped her run just under 656 laps on the track. It's a remarkable performance and I think you'll enjoy the episode so let's start the show.

Over the weekend, Brogan Austin won the 2018 USATF Marathon Championships, which were held at the California International Marathon. Matt Llano looked like the early favorite in the race. He had the fastest personal best and took off from the start and once held a two-minute lead on the rest of the field. It wasn't until the 26th mile that Austun caught and passed Llano. He won the race in a huge personal best of 2:12:38. A lot of the running community was wondering: Who the heck is this guy? We've got your answer on this week's podcast. Get to know the 2015 Drake University graduate, why he decided to keep running post collegiately, why he loves the treadmill, how his life changed under coach Tom "Tinman" Schwartz and how this whole race almost didn't happen.
