See more fromThe CITIUS MAG Podcast with Chris Chavez | A Running + Track and Field ShowāI just kind of wanted to write my own narrative of what it meant to be a professional runner. I knew coming out of college, I just didnāt want to give up on that dream. It was super important for me to do what I was passionate about and take a chance on myself. That meant moving to Boulder instead of moving to San Francisco and going to work at a 9-5 tech job. Basically, itās been not giving up on myself knowing I have a lot more to give to the sportā¦ā
My guest for todayās episode is Joey Berriatua. This is actually the first podcast episode that I recorded in person in a while and Iām glad itās with someone who has an appreciation for CITIUS MAG from its start in 2017. Just a few years back, Joey was a diehard Citius fan. Heād buy all the merch weād put out. Heād listen to all the podcasts, DM us and he was running some solid times at Santa Clara. Sometime around 2018 and once his eligibility was over, he decided to continue his running career and he connected with Sam Parsons and Tinman Elite. Heās seen some big improvements since his move to Boulder and heās on the cusp of breaking four minutes for the mile. I believe heās running a mile this weekend, which would be cool to see him finally get under. We talk about how we got to this point, why he took this risk on himself, some people give Tinman a hard time and how he takes that criticism plus whatās the endgame in this pursuit. Itās funny because when I showed up to the Tinman house, I didnāt know Iād be sitting down with Joey so there were no notes and no questions written down for this one. Just two of us having a candid and honest conversation. Enjoy!
