Description

On this episode of Le Run Down I spoke with former Pro Triathlete and World Cup Champion, Andrew MacMartin. 
As a young teenager he took a liking to endurance sports, immersing himself in cross country and cycling. But when he heard about triathlon, that became his focus and becoming the best in the world quickly became his long term goal.
Despite tremendous success as a pro athlete, he decided to step away from the sport he loved. After a long hiatus, he found his love for running again. Although he knows he can’t perform at the same level as once did, Andrew is motivated to break a two hour forty minute marathon before he turns fifty and I have no doubt he’ll get there.

This podcast allows runners to connect and envision what they could become. Everyone starts somewhere but it’s how you move forward that determines which path you’ll take. For some, running is just exercise, however we believe it is much more than that: it’s mental, physical and in some cases even spiritual. Our guests are inspiring in terms of their accomplishments but they put one foot in front of the other just like everyone else.
