This year, The California International Marathon plays host to the USATF Marathon Championships. Along with those competing for the win, hundreds of America's top marathoners will run together from Folsom to Sacramento in search of OTQs. CIM is arguably the deepest marathon in the world year after year. Geoff Burns joins Jeff to talk about why that's the case and what contenders have to look out for on the course.
Geoff Burns is a Dr. in kinesiology and exercise sciences and Master in Biomechanical and Biomedical engineering, a Physiologist for Team USA in Colorado Springs, US 100k Champion and 2:24 marathoner.
