On this episode of Le Run Down I enjoyed a great conversation with Elite Distance runner and Mile2Marathon coach, Justin Kent.

Justin played all sports growing up but decided to turn his focus to running. With the influence of his father and coach's, he's been able to grow up through the sport in a positive way.

He holds speedy times in the 1500 meters all the way up to the marathon and he races all distances to keep himself sharp for any challenge. His ultimate goal is to make an Olympic team, slowly building year after year in pursuit of his own personal potential.
