Welcome to the second episode of Racing through Life. This is a podcast hosted by OpenRace co-founders Matthew Cianci & Christian Camarata. OpenRace is a real-time virtual running app striving to connect and motivate runners, as well as help event organizers increase revenue, reach a larger audience and provide a more interactive virtual race. We found that not many people are showcasing this great and very connected running community, so OpenRace wants to amplify that exposure and show the lives of different runners and people within the running community both on and off the track.

Tom Bosworth was an amazing guest. He holds the world record for the 1 mile race walk and is currently ranked #1 in the UK for the 20km. He's also the first out gay British track and field athlete who placed 6th in the Rio Olympics and can walk faster than the average person runs. We touched on topics ranging from his initial introduction to race walking all the way to the party life inside the Athlete Village at the Olympics in Rio.
