Hey! Max Polak, from Papendrecht, went to the US when he was 20 to pursue his running career: running at both Boise State University and Miami University. After a few ups and downs he is now back in the Netherlands and getting stronger in the half-marathon while also putting in some solid performances on the track. Max trains under Bram Wassenaar at Leiden Atletiek.
We recorded this interview while Max was at a training camp in Portugal, in the lead up to the CPC Half-Marathon in Den Haag. Max was very candid about what running means to him and how he has used running as a means to further his education and explore new opportunities. He tells of his racing tactics and what motivates him. He's recently also been having some very nice battles with Everyday Runner regular, Dominic Bersee.
This episode opens with a 'listener question' regarding what to do in case of having a long-term injury. I briefly share my thoughts.
