Episode 027: Mark Huizar’s 2:14:45 OTQ: Full CIM Race Breakdown
Mark Huizar breaks down his 2:14:45 Olympic Trials Qualifier at CIM, revealing exactly how he punched his ticket to the 2028 Games while balancing a full-time job. We deep dive into his specific race strategy, covering how to run perfect tangents, the most efficient method for energy conservation, and why an "unimpressive" training build was the secret to his breakthrough. Mark shares the mental frameworks he used to stay "cautiously optimistic" through mile 20 and the emotional reality of finally achieving a career goal after nine years of grinding. Whether you're chasing an OTQ or a personal best, this episode offers a masterclass in patience, fueling, and elite race-day execution.
