Set the Pace

“Wicked” Star Jordan Litz Prepares for His First TCS New York City Marathon


Listen Later

Joining Rob on this episode of Set the Pace is Jordan Litz, a Broadway actor and singer currently starring in “Wicked” as Fiyero. Originally from California, Jordan trained to be an Olympic swimmer, competing in the 2012 U.S. Olympic trials. He’s built a career on stage with performances in national tours and regional productions before making his Broadway debut. Off the stage, he’s an avid runner who recently took first place in the Broadway Mile at the New Balance 5th Avenue Mile, raising money for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. This November, Jordan will be running his first marathon at the 2025 TCS New York City Marathon and on that day, he plans to perform in two “Wicked” shows! For this week’s Member Moment, Meb talks to Taurean Wiggins of Harlem Run. Taurean’s passion for running comes with a passion for his community and about seeing his neighbors challenge themselves and thrive on the run.
