Two months ago Mitch Ammons achieved the seemingly impossible. He qualified for the Olympic Trials Marathon at the California International Marathon with a time of 2:16:48. In this episode we dive into everything that went into that special day. You can hear more about Mitch's tumultuous and uplifting background in episode 456. Here is what Mitch wrote about that special day. It encapsulates his journey perfectly: "I don’t even know where to start with this one. Thanks all of y’all for the overwhelming support. After all, this is a sport that is about community and man don’t we have a great one. Five years ago almost to the day I started this running journey. I was 2 years sober; heroin and meth, on my way to changing everything about myself. I can say with confidence that running was the biggest catalyst to self improvement. It gave me motivation and drive to always become better, it’s given me a community that I call family, my best friends, girlfriend, and continued sobriety have to be credited from running, 3 years ago I set an outrageous, almost unimaginable goal that I would qualify for the Olympic Marathon Team Trials in 2024. All I have to say about that is that WE F*%#ING DID IT!" You can follow Mitch at www.instagram.com/mitchammons.
