Episode 63: Boston Marathon and the Splendid Septuagenarian

Spring marathon season reaches full bloom in Boston and London over the next two weeks. Lining up in Hopkinton alongside the A-list from the USA (Shalane, Molly Huddle, Jordan Hasay, Desi Linden, Galen Rupp) will be Gene Dykes, who Gregg interviews in Episode 63. Gene became the world’s second septuagenarian under 3 hours and set a seven-minute personal best when he ran 2:57:43 at last weekend’s Rotterdam Marathon. To Boylston Street we ready, set, go!
