Welcome to Chasing Three Hours, a podcast about what runners are chasing, why they keep pushing themselves, and what keeps them curious! On this episode of the podcast, recorded live from the Good Life Halfsy expo in early November, Sam Calderon joined Josh to discuss:

• Growing up in Minnesota and what's it like being a runner in that climate (2:12)
• Deciding to go after an OTQ after she finished college (9:44)
• Moving to Colorado to further her goals and what it's like being surrounded by that running scene (14:44)
• Lining up on the start line of the race where she'd qualify for the Olympic Trials (18:40)
• Waking up the next day (20:53)
• Will she chase after a goal like that again? (25:42)
• Being a new mom and how it's changed her relationship with running (29:01)
• What's her job as a coach? (33:59)
• What she's currently chasing (40:49)

And so much more!

Thanks to Pink Gorilla for having me at the Good Life Halfsy expo!
