Description

With an Olympic hopeful runner for a father, and not wanting to compete with his siblings in the family business of running, Dan King pushed off his destiny early in his athletic life with wrestling and other activities. 
In an effort to build fitness in the off season, he finally succumbed to Cross Country where he would show some of the early talent that would earn him a world record in the 60-64 age group mile with a blistering time of 4:49 as well winning the USATF Colorado Long Distance Runners of the Year for 2021.
In his own words, Dan doesn't consider himself competitive, but achievement-oriented. And I think you'll find him to be amazing.
So, if you're ready for the show, crank it up and let's go.

Formerly, The Athlinks Podcast, Faster Forward is a show where we sit down and talk with some amazing people from the endurance community. Age groupers and olympians. Adventurers and Explorers. Hosted by Athlinks Founder, Troy Busot, we discuss their successes and failures. About falling down, getting back up and never ever quitting. While it's not always about finishing, it is most definitely about starting and getting on a journey faster forward.
