My Guide to Being a Pacer: How to Prepare for a Running Event


Listen Later

In this episode, I dive into what it's really like to prepare for the role of a pacer in a running event. Drawing from my own experience as the 45-minute pacer at my local 10k, I break down the crucial steps needed to set yourself—and your fellow runners—up for success. I share why knowing the route inside our matters, how to adjust for multi-terrain races, why your own pace buffer is essential, and the importance of clear communication with those who rely on you. Whether you're an experienced runner being asked to pace, or you're just curious about how pacers help others smash their targets, this episode is packed with tips and honest reflections from my own running journey. Plus, I talk a bit about my mission to save lives through run vlogging—thanks for being part of the journey!
