This week we celebrated the 100th episode of NYRR Set the Pace live at the Public Theater in NYC. Rob and Becs kicked off the show by bringing back the podcast’s very first guest, Meb Keflezighi, a 2004 Olympic silver medalist in Athens who in 2009, became the first American since 1982 to win the New York City Marathon, and in 2014 became the first American man to win the Boston Marathon since 1983. He also started the Meb Foundation, whose mission is to promote youth health, education, and fitness in the US and abroad. He discusses his philosophy “run to win” about getting the best out of yourself in racing and in life. Plus, Janelle Hartman joined the stage for this week’s Member Moment. Janelle is the recipient of the 2018 Joe Kleinerman award and long-time volunteer with New York Road Runners. She crossed the finish line as the official final finisher of the 2018 TCS New York City Marathon at age 55.
