Shadrack Biwott is one of only three athletes in the men's field for the US Olympic Marathon Trials who has stood on a World Major Marathon podium. He finished 3rd at the Boston Marathon in 2018 in the extreme cold, windy, and rainy conditions that also accompanied Des Linden's victory on the same day. That finish along with his 4th place finish at Boston in 2017 and 5th place at NYC in 2016 give you only the surface reasons needed to suggest he could make an Olympic team on February 29th.  In this interview, Kara and Chris dig into so much more including Shadrack's move to the US in high school when he couldn't speak English to the struggles of his early pro days without a sponsor and his first marathon that almost had him swear off the distance. Now, Shadrack trains with the Hansons-Brooks Distance Project and has achieved stability in the sport but admits he is still very much learning the marathon distance as he seeks to make his first Olympic team. We think you will find this interview relatable, endearing, and refreshing as Shadrack himself says that all he can do is "tell the truth." Thank you Shadrack for doing just that with us and for your commitment to clean sport.
