Episode #36: CJ Albertson on breaking 50K record and running being easy
CJ Albertson loves to just wake up and give himself wild challenges. In the middle of the pandemic last year, with all races shut down, the 27-year-old Brooks runner decided to try and break the 50K world record. It took 125 laps in soaking-wet shoes, but he set the record in his first official attempt.
About a week later, CJ ran a 2:09 marathon on the treadmill- also a world record.
This makes complete sense for a guy who claims his favorite quote is “running is easy.”
In this episode, CJ discusses his world record attempts - both on the track and the treadmill - and his ability to just wake up and set his mind to breaking records.
