On this episode of the Training for the Trials series Lauren and Abby chat with CJ Albertson. CJ lives in Fresno California with his wife Chelsey who will also being toeing the line in Atlanta on Saturday - talk about a speedy couple! CJ has what lots of people may consider a unique approach to training but as you'll hear in this episode it makes complete sense to him. Listen to hear about the time he ran a trail "half marathon" in China, his rapid succession of marathons in the last 18 months and what he does to recover from his high training load / 30+ mile long runs!

He is a rabbitPRO and ran his OTQ at the California International Marathon in 2017. Curly is a dad, works full time, and is a DJ. His life is BUSY and it was so fun learning how he juggles it all.

On this episode of the Training for the Trials series Lauren catches up with Kevin Havel. Kevin lives in Chicago but runs all over the country while traveling for work. He is a member of the Second City Track Club and qualified for the 2020 Olympic Trials this past fall at the Chicago Marathon alongside a handful of his teammates. We loved hearing about Kevin's training and how he's worked his way back to a love of the sport after a tough period in college. In this episode we talk about his time at Stanford, how he re-found a love of the sport in his post-collegiate years, his Second City team and his training. I especially enjoyed learning that he doesn't run with a GPS watch! You can track Kevin during Saturday's race here (https://rtrt.me/atlanta2020trials/track/REBKD4WS).
