48. Willis Chen

Welcome to Chasing Three Hours, a podcast about what runners are chasing, why they keep pushing themselves, and what keeps them curious! On this episode of the podcast, Willis Chen joined Josh to discuss:

• Finding running as an adult and why it's fit his personality so well (6:27)
• Chasing three hours entering the picture and why he wanted to go after that goal (18:31)
• Entering 2023 at a low point with his running (33:06)
• His first sub-three hour marathon in London (37:46)
• Getting a PR at the Berlin Marathon before beating it two weeks later in Chicago (1:01:02)
• After an incredible 2023, were there any post-race blues? (1:09:50)
• "The sky is the limit" - What's out there? (1:18:30)
• What he's currently chasing (1:29:35)

And a whole lot more!
