Johnny is a miler and professional runner for ASICS. He grew up in Seekonk, MA and both his parents were professional runners, Olympians and coaches. Johnny has represented the USA at the World Championships and the PanAm Games and is a PanAm Silver Medalist. He has his sights set on the Olympics next summer and is working hard to make the team. We wanted to get Johnny on the show to talk about his career so far as well as the Blue Jean World Record that he is attempting later this month.

We enjoyed catching up with Johnny and we know you will too!
