Joel Reichow is an unsponsored marathoner who's been running with Minnesota Distance Elite for a while now, but he's finally had that breakout year, winning Grandma's Marathon (to go along with his prior Gary Bjorklund Half Marathon at Grandma's win in 2023) and also coming in 6th in New York with a sub 2:10 time. In this Bonus Episode! I talk with Joel about his race day, the shoes he's been training and racing in as a free agent, and I also do a quick check on just how Minnesota Runner this Minnesota native is. 00:00 INTRO00:51 Interview Start01:39 Kiss, Marry, Kill02:37 Result in NYC05:03 Any time goals?05:38 Race recap, breakdown10:52 Race Day Shoes12:40 What other shoes are you running in?14:13 Getting ready for New York15:34 What are you doing with your hair?18:36 Interaction with Annie20:13 Inside Minnesota Elite21:48 How Minnesota Runner Are You?Follow Minnesota Distance Elite on youtubehttps://www.youtube.com/@MinnesotaDistanceEliteFollow Joel on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/joelreichow/?hl=en
