Description
Our guest this episode is long time GBTC team member and recent author of “Two Clicks Above Mediocre: An Athlete’s Story” Jon Berit. Mediocre is an understatement in reference to Jon’s running resume and certainly his longevity in the sport. For example his marathon PR of 2:29 would have placed in the top 117 finishers in the 2024 Boston Marathon which would hardly be considered mediocre by today’s standards. Jon’s talent label was likely associated from his years at Providence College when the likes of John Treacy, Dan Dillon and Ray Treacy were just a few of the legendary runners on the team where running 25 minutes for 8K would get you a spot on the JV team. We hope you enjoy Jon’s journey through decades of competing for the love of the sport fueled by the early influences of the running boom.
