Today's edition of The Aid Station is a fascinating interview with Carlo Capalbo, President of Run Czech, in the beautiful city of Prague, Czech Republic.


Get an amazing insight into the origins of the Volkswagen Prague Marathon - it involved a long dinner with the legendary Emil Zatopek and a handful of table napkins with the first course sketched on them!


Carlo himself is a legend of the industry and an innovator who has made a massive contribution in many ways over decades including being Chairman of the IAAF World Running Commission for four years.


During COVID-19 he and his team at Run Czech have managed to create a program of unique events that have seen almost 12,000 runners in total being able to participate in safe events.


Make sure you watch until the end to hear Carlo's take on what the industry will look like five years from now and stay tuned on September 5 when he will be making a big announcement that will look to influence that journey.
