34. The Process Is The Goal With Tyler Andrews

1h 17m · Run The Globe | Rewrite Your Story · 07 Sep 19:46

The value of this podcast comes directly from the amazing guests I am able to speak with on a weekly basis. Today’s guest is not only a seasoned vet on the road, track and trail but is also a CEO of a coaching company known as Chaski Endurance Collective. What made the sit down with Tyler Andrews so enjoyable is that he has range when it comes to speaking from the perspective of both an athlete and coach. 

Tyler’s journey is unique because he did not excel like most world class athletes do early on in their career, particularly in high school. In high school he was an 18:30 5,000 meter runner as a senior. However, as Tyler continued to consistently put in the work he found greater success at Tufts University as he made NCAA D3 Nationals twice as an individual. 

After graduating with a mechanical engineering degree, Tyler took an opportunity to continue chasing his running goals and moved to Ecuador. While living there, he became exactly what he believed he could become through countless miles and hours of dedication to his craft.

Michael Wardian’s journey into the running world is somewhat unique for a man who is a multiple time “Ultra Runner of the Year” recipient. Michael was a Division 1 lacrosse player for Michigan State University and had the grand idea of running the Boston Marathon shortly after graduation. However, Michael had never ran competitively before. Naturally this made him unaware that you actually had to qualify for the race. In hopes for qualifying for the race he decided to run the Marine Corps Marathon. In his first marathon EVER, Michael qualified for Boston and ran a 2:54 in just his second competitive race.

Years later he stands as one of the most decorated ultra runners around the world. He has the fastest average time for an individual who has run seven marathons in seven continents in seven days. He has won the 50km, 50 Miler, and 100km U.S. championship through-out his career.

Earlier this year he ran the Quarantine Backyard Ultra where he accumulated 262 miles over the course of 63 hours and he did it off of NO SLEEP. He is sponsored by Hoka, T-Mobile and is a coach alongside other elite runners and coaches for Chaski Endurance Collective.

 

Outside of running he enjoys playing chess and like many of us he plays in multiple fantasy football leagues.

 

In this episode we discuss:

  • How his running journey began
  • How he stays healthy and the importance of strength training
  • How he was able to push through in the Quarantine Backyard Ultra
  • The power of a support group
  • Self-limiting beliefs and why you should set big goals
  • How he wants to run across the moon
  • The importance of putting yourself into a position to fail

35. The Best Is Yet To Come With 2016 Olympic Bronze Medalist Clayton Murphy

It is very difficult to figure out who is going to be great in the sport of running. Sometimes it can be obvious and easy to pick out the kids who could possibly go pro in football and basketball at an early age. Which could often be as early as their early high school years. However, that isn’t quite the case with running. No one really knows how many reps it takes along the spectrum of repetition to get so good that you’d one day become a professional runner.

 

Today’s guest went from good to great rather quickly once he attended  Akron University for both cross country and track and field. No one knows how long it takes to get great, but we can all look at Clayton Murphy’s journey and see exactly how long it took for him. 

 

Clayton progressed so quickly within the middle distance races while at Akron that he finished 3rd at both the NCAA Indoor & Outdoor Championships in just his sophomore season in the 800 meter run. During his time at Akron he became a 4 x All-American and a 3 x National Champion (2x 800 meters 1x1500).

 

In 2015 we would see Clayton win his first Pan-American games in the 800 meter run followed up by his bronze medalist performance in the Rio 2016 Summer Olympic Games in the 800 meter run.

 

Clayton currently resides in Cleveland, Ohio with his wife Ariana Murphy, who is an olympian herself.

 

In this episode we discuss:

 

  • How Clayton made the jump from good to great
  • Clayton’s training in High School
  • How he handled Quarantine
  • How he was able to balance being a college student and athlete simultaneously during the time of his breakthrough
  • How important it is to be flexible throughout the training process
  • The advantage of having a support system and what drives him to be better
  • Fulfilling running moments
  • How he prepares in practice to execute in races and the importance of. Communications with your coach
  • Why Akron University decided to cancel the Men’s Cross Country program
  • His current training and parting piece of advice
