47 Mario Fraioli Olympic Preview

On this episode we welcome runner and writer Mario Fraioli onto the podcast to give us an Olympic Preview - the track events we should be watching from Rio. We also talk about Rule 40, which presents challenges to smaller brands trying to get a return on their investment in upcoming track athletes, as well as the athletes themselves whose ability to market themselves during the Olympic games is seriously restrained.

I was introduced to Mario through Julia Hanlon's Running on Om Podcast. I highly recommend listening to his story - Julia does an excellent job sharing Mario's challenges in his post-collegiate running career and how they've informed his coaching career. I also strongly recommend subscribing to his weekly newsletter at morningshakeout.com. You can follow Mario on Twitter at @mariofraioli, and consider accepting his #saytwowords challenge on Instagram and follow him at @mariofraioli.
