The Zone 2 Podcast

🐘 An Olympic Trials Qualifying (OTQ) marathon time has long represented the standard of excellence in distance running, and this week, we were thrilled to be joined by a man who has done it, not once, but twice: Eric Ashe!

☄️ Eric is a 2-time OTQ marathon runner, 4-time team MVP and 2-time team captain at BU, 4:03 miler, conference champion in the Steeplechase, and former head distance coach at Tufts University Eric Ashe!

💫 Enjoy this glance into Eric’s impressive journey as we explore running origins, high school breakouts, the transition from events like the mile and 3000m steeplechase to the marathon, collegiate coaching, and more!
