Jason Fitzgerald started Strength Running in 2010 with a small blog after he ran his first marathon in 2:44 and suffered through a severe IT Band injury. 11 years later, Strength Running is now a multimedia company with a YouTube channel, Instagram, award-winning blog, and Twitter. He also provides a number of training programs, including the popular Injury Prevention for Runners and High Performance Lifting. In addition to all this, Jason is the head coach of Team Strength Running - an engaged community of runners who cheer each other on while getting the resources they need to propel their running forward. And of course, there is the Strength Running Podcast, which is where we're catching up with Jason today. In this interview, Jason shares more details about: Why he stuck with running in his early years The positive impact that different coaches have had on him The ups and downs of Jason's own running career Running post college and how his focus shifted How Strength Running went from a passion project to a full time job Wisdom for those wanting to become entrepreneurs Thank You beam!
