Jared Ward RUNS LIKE HELL l The Marathon Pacing Expert (PhD) Meets a 5K Progression Run

U.S. Olympic marathoner Jared Ward joins Alex Cyr for Episode 3 of Runs Like Hell—our progressive 5K interview where the pace gets faster and the questions get tougher every kilometer. Ward (2:08 marathoner, Utah-based coach/athlete, and statistician) breaks down ideal marathon pacing strategy (the research behind his PhD), shares the story of Connor Mantz living in his basement during his BYU days, and answers the most candid question he’s ever gotten about being Mormon. Then the run goes off the rails: the first guest we’ve had who’s faster than Alex, and the final kilometer dips under 3:00/km.
