Welcome back to The Beyond The Finish Line Show — the place where the course meets the conversation. I’m your host, Brayden Domont, and today… we’re doing something special.
The stakes? Huge.
The tension? Real.
The race? Just days away.
This Saturday, two of the top cross country runners in the state — Bentlee Lawrenz and Lucas Pfoutz — will line up at the starting line with one goal: a state championship.
But before the gun goes off, they’re both here — together — for an exclusive, unfiltered conversation. No coaches. No teammates. Just two rivals, face-to-face… with everything on the line.
We’re talking training. Race strategy. Mental toughness. And yes — how they see each other heading into what could be the most important 2 Mile of their middle school careers.
Whether you're a runner, a coach, or just here for the drama — buckle up.
This is Lawrenz vs. Pfoutz: The Showdown at State.
Let’s get into it.
