Description
This summer… get ready to meet a different kind of track meet.
Where the world's fastest athletes meet a festival atmosphere.
The big run is proud to be partnering with On to bring you a series of preview podcasts around their global track night series.
This week we'll be building the excitement for Track Fest with episodes dropping each morning with key figures on and off the track.
First up is the founder of Sound Running and the main man behind Track Fest, Jesse Williams. Jesse has worked with athletes of all levels for the past 15 years with a career in sports marketing. He's a runner himself with 2.22 marathon PR and a former career as a hand model ?
In this conversation, we get the background to how Sound Running began, what to expect from the Track Fest and why they are building an experience driven, professional track season.
It's a great conversation, thanks to Jesse for coming on the show.
We have episodes dropping everyday this week so be sure to subscribe from where ever you get your podcasts to be the first to hear
Here's what to expect at Track Fest:
Part music festival, part track meet, LA's Track Fest is unmissable for running fans (and fans of a good time).
It's a World Athletics Silver level meet organized in collaboration with Sound Running with 800m, 1500m, steeplechase, 5000m and 10,000m events. There will also be a community event where you can watch LA's local run clubs compete for the title in a 4x1 mile relay on the legendary Mt. Sac course. Grab a drink and cheer them on alongside ultrarunner extraordinaire (and master of ceremonies), Mikey Mitchell.
The track will be lit up with pyrotechnics, and surrounded by food trucks and beer tents. Oh yeah, and your food is covered with your ticket. And as if all that wasn't enough, to top it off, we'll have a performance from US rapper Kyle
