Show Notes
In this episode, we talk with Jake Van Fleet about training for the New York City Marathon. Jake is a PGA of America member and currently an Assistant Golf Professional at Skokie Country Club. This is the second marathon that Jake has prepared for and he has a lot of insights about what he has done differently this time!
Specifically, Jake and I cover:
- What he has changed preparing for this marathon compared to his last
- How he has changed his running shoe approach
- The hardest part of training for a marathon
- How he balanced training, family time and his job
- More information about PGA Reach and the causes it supports
