007 - Anthony Famiglietti

When logic and reasoning fails, begging and pleading gives way to an act of defiance against coach's wishes that placed a live-wire runner into his very first Steeplechase, kickstarting a career highlighted by 2 Olympic games. 

On the podcast today, we take a long, slow run through the mind of Anthony "Fam" Famiglietti. Olympic steeplechaser, founder of Reckless Running, and sub-4-minute treadmill miler. 

Excuse the audio at times. We caught up with Anthony in his car with a rainstorm overhead, but it’s well-worth the listen. 

Some of you may know Anthony from a video that we posted back on December 5 of last year where armed only with a pair of sketchers and a Zwift powered treadmill Anthony broke four minutes for the mile.
