Ep. 56: Ty Janik: How life and running lessons made unforgettable marathons
1 hr 0 min
When you see someone post an incredible marathon time on social media, all you're seeing is a blip in their timeline. For Ty Janik, his 2:50 finish at the Chicago Marathon was exactly that. Ty entered into the sport of running with an athletic background in 2020 and debut a 3:46 marathon time that year. While impressive, it would take six years of lessons in running and reflecting on lessons in life to finally crack the Boston qualifying standard. It wasn't easy for Ty at times, but he never took for granted the moments in this journey. And that journey isn't stopping here. Ty is still training for multiple races, gearing up for his Boston Marathon debut in 2027, and even taking all of the lessons he's learned into coaching other athletes toward their big dreams.
