Welcome back to The Marathon Podcast. On this episode, we have Will Hopkins on. Will is a runner who's had incredible progress, but with a lot of patience and consistency. You might know him from Eric Floberg's videos, but he is now a fast marathoner himself.

His first marathon was a 4 hr marathon, but a few years later he is a 2:48 marathoner. What made him so much faster?
