Toni has a really cool job - and the way he got it is a great story! His current boss did a run interview with him, about a 10 mile run that secured Toni the job! He travels to expos representing Saysky and works with athletes that represent the brand on the daily - he is one of the major reasons you probably know of Saysky!
There is some great running advice on this episode, Toni has significantly dropped his marathon time over the years - but also some great career advice as well. If you want a career in the running space, Toni explains how to do it! Enjoy!
