Pacing elite female marathon runners with Matthias Eder (German) - a podcast by Sophie.Cro

How to become pacer for elite female marathon runners?

In this episode, I talk to Matthias Eder who started as a triathlete, then competed as a duathlete in the German national team before turning to marathon running at around age 30. In between he also participated in long distance triathlons and ultra trail runs. As a marathon runner with a PR of 2:25h he started supporting various elite female runners as a pacer and helped them reach national titles and qualify for Olympics. We talk about his experiences and strategies as a pacer.
