Julian this week chats with Evan Schwartz (not Eric) about his unconventional progression in running, starting as a walk-on for Ohio State while explaining the walk-on process for college scholarships. He talks about his introduction and progression through long-distance road running and the high turnover rate associated with transitioning into post-college running that challenges motivation, as well as running within the American Olympic Trial system.
Evan then talks about working at running power-meter startup Stryd, what the basic principles behind running with power are and how he’ll be applying them to his upcoming marathon at California International. Find out about Stryd at https://www.stryd.com/
