Episode 103 of The Final Sprint Podcast, the most listened to running podcast in North America, features my interview with Team USA Minnesota’s JASON LEHMKUHLE.
Jason shattered his marathon PR and outperformed many of America’s most prominent runners to finish in 2:12:54 and come in an impressive 5th place at last Saturday’s U.S. Olympic Men’s Marathon Trials in NYC.
In the interview Jason talks about the keys to his success at the Trials, why the course was not as difficult as he expected, what it’s like to be running with and passing America’s most successful elite runners, the tremendous crowd support, dealing with the tragic lose of Ryan Shay, and how it makes (or should make) an athlete (especially one like Jason who knows they have a heart murmur) take extra medical precautions.
Download the podcast to hear Jason discuss these topics, as well as, his racing plans for the spring, his long buildup to the 10,000m U.S. Olympic Track & Field Trials, his future in marathoning, what makes Minnesota an ideal place to live and train, his freelance graphic design work, helping younger runners, and much more!

The Final Sprint
Mark,
Thanks for your podcasts. I love your knowledge and your ability to get great guests but you have to help us listeners out a little.
Please try to keep your questions short, and free of long-winded multiple choice options prior to letting the interviewee respond. Please stick with short, open ended questions where the interviewee is free to respond as they please, then don´t interrupt until they are done answering. You can edit as you see fit after the interview.
It appears this is getting worse by the podcast and even Jason commented multiple times during this podcast that the questions took too long to get out, answered themselves, or had too many sub-questions to be addressed in one reply.
Try listening to any ESPN.com, wfan.com or enduranceplanet.com interview podcast to see the questioning techniques employed there.
As a general rule if your question took longer to ask than the guest took to reply, it was too long.
thanks mate, Dan
