When one of these four is your coaching client🤯
(Who, unfortunately, has to miss the race this year due to a hamstring injury 😢, but don’t worry, he’s on the comeback trail)
Still, please cheer for these other age group -stars as they compete in the World Age Group Championships at the London Marathon!

- Dorcas Huang set a [huge] PR and won the women’s race at the Saucony mile
- Rachel Sandler was 2nd, only a few strides behind, and met her season goal in only her 2nd race
- John Flexner knocked out an unsupported 100K on the trails of Wissahickon Park in Philly
- Michael Fontes finished 1st AG at the Anchorage Marathon in Alaska
- David Lynn finished 3rd AG at Grandma’s Marathon in Duluth, MN
