59. Chris Gannon

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, Creighton track and cross country coach Chris Gannon joined Josh to discuss:

• What it's been like coaching distance runners given he didn't compete in that part of the sport (2:49)
• After leaving college coaching, did he ever have a goal to get back to the level he's at now? (13:26)
• His background in running being a benefit in coaching distance runners (23:39)
• Is his approach unique amongst other college coaches? (39:21)
• What he looks for when he's recruiting an athlete to Creighton (43:18)
