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, John Ritland joined Josh to discuss:

  • Running in the 2024 Tokyo Marathon (2:03)
  • Not chasing after all six Abbott World Majors only to race so many in such a short amount of time (5:44)
  • Running the 2007 Boston Marathon after thinking his running days were behind him (17:38)
  • Having a healthy relationship with running through so many surgeries (28:05)
  • Times getting slower (32:40)
  • What goals does he have with running? (38:18)
  • What he's currently chasing (43:18)

And a whole lot more!
