Steve Farver
Interview with Scott Kohen, who has run an average of 3 miles or more a day for 1,000 days. His goal is to eventually reach 10,000 miles run as well as someday qualify for the Boston Marathon.
Started Journey: Began running 1,000 days on May 1, 2013
Memorable Record: Finishing first half (2013 Ann Arbor Half Marathon) and a full marathon (2013 Chicago Marathon)
Fun Fact: Running 4:31 at the 2014 Ann Arbor Marathon is a time I am proud of because of the many hills involved in the race
Last Race: The 2014 Chicago Marathon (Scott has run 4 marathons total at this point)
Next Race: Kalamazoo Marathon on may 3, 2016
I interview Crossfit athlete Max Petit. He currently enters several competitions throughout the year and trains regularly at Next Level Fitness and Black Anvil Training.
Favorite WOD (Workout of the Day) - Fran...or anything with thrusters.
Fun Fact: Played intercollegiate dodgeball
Last Competition:
Individual: Crossfit Downriver Open in September 2015 (placed 3rd)
Team: October he competed as a part of the Next Level Fitness team in the Great Lakes Bay Regional Throwdown (team placed first).
I interview former track athlete, Ian Philbrick. He ran cross country and track at the University at Minnesota at Morris.
Events: 8k in Cross Country and 5k in track
Memorable Times: 15.53 (15 minutes and 53 seconds) 5k time in April of 2010 at the University of Wisconsin- River Falls. This was my fastest 5k time and this came in my junior year of track. I really hoped to break 15.30 my senior year, but I got injured before the season started and never really had a chance.
27.18 (27 minutes, 18 seconds) 8k time in November of 2010 at the NCAA Regionals at Wartburg College in Iowa. This race was memorable because it was my last cross country race of my college career and it was also my fastest. (One of my goals was to be continually improving, so going out with my fastest race was pretty fun.)
Fun Fact: I never ran Cross Country until my sophomore year in college.
Last Race I Ran: The Great Lakes Bay Half-Marathon on May 19th, 2013.
