On this episode of the Training for the Trials series Lauren catches up with Curly Guillen. Curly lives and trains in Santa Barbara, California. He is a rabbitPRO and ran his OTQ at the California International Marathon in 2017. Curly is a dad, works full time, and is a DJ. His life is BUSY and it was so fun learning how he juggles it all. In this episode we talk about how he first found the sport in high school, the 7 year break he took from the sport and his return - which had one goal from the beginning, to qualify for the Olympic Trials in the marathon. You can track Curly during Saturday's race here (https://rtrt.me/atlanta2020trials/track/RK2AB9YG).
