Ean talks about how jumping into Spartan obstacle races brought him back into running about eight years ago. It came after running sparingly and entering races infrequently after an All-American and Iowa Conference championship career in the 800 at Cornell College. Ean chats about starting his own construction business while at the Mount Vernon school. He talks about when he knew he was ready to take a stab at the Iowa masters 5K record, which he set last September in Des Moines. The Running Wild Elite athlete, who says his easy days are run at about 7-minute mile pace, explains why he goes indoors for many of his tough workouts. Ean chats about his wife, Abby, and four kids and the interest they are showing in running. He talks about his motivation after turning 40 and an advantage he could have over other men on the masters records lists.
