Today on the podcast is Baltimore Marathon Winner Willy Fink.

Willy is a professional runner for Under Armour Baltimore Distance, and is one of the top track athletes in the United States.

Willy’s story this past year has been pretty incredible, because this time last year, at the BU Opener, he ran 13:19 for 5K indoors and had tons of momentum going into 2024, and Olympic Year. However, in the spring, Willy sustained a terrible achilles injury that even left him unable to walk for a bit, yet he came back, ran at the Olympic Trials, won the Baltimore Marathon in October, and just overall had an incredible comeback story.

So in our conversation, we did into his rollercoaster 2024 journey, the value of patience and how he defines discipline, the power of positivity and how we pulled off the victory at the 2024 Baltimore Marathon.
