62. Ryan Bolton

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, Olympian Ryan Bolton joined Josh to discuss:

• What does he miss the most with running? (4:07)
• Why he started drifting towards the triathlon (10:15)
• How training for three sports in one event differs from training for three sports on their own (19:08)
• Was he overwhelmed from 1996 to 2000? (28:55)
• Was the feeling of qualifying for the Olympics like he expected it would be? (33:53)
• Waking up the day after competing in the Olympics (41:24)
• Finding enjoyment in coaching (43:40)
• Being there on an athlete's big day (53:54)
• What he's currently chasing (1:01:16)

And a whole lot more!
