Code Switching: with Jake Byrne

NOTE: Apologies for the uploading difficulties this morning - this is the full episode! This week's guest is is our good friend and former teammate Jake Byrne. Jake is an Irishman currently living in the UK who graduated from Iona College in 2015 before competing for the Heartbreakers during his time in Boston. He’s run 14:01 in the 5k and is an accomplished distance runner, winning the Northeast Regional XC championships in 2014 and winning the IC4A Championship in the 10,000 in 2015. Jake was full of great stories, including accidentally attending a drag show, racing cross country in soccer cleats, and his best running catcalls. We dug into accents and gimmick miles and so much more. Don’t forget to subscribe on iTunes for new episodes and to follow our Instagram and Facebook to see the straw hats we wore to the recording!
