Sarah Gearhart (American author)

Sarah Gearhart is a New York based sportswriter and now author. You name the organization; she has probably written for it! USA Today, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, ESPN, Runner's World, Vice Sports…

In April 2023 she published her first book: “We Share the Sun: The Incredible Journey of Kenya's Legendary Running Coach Patrick Sang and the Fastest Runners on Earth.”

I met Sarah in Boston during the 2023 marathon weekend, and we sat down for this podcast conversation about her experience writing this book including how she convinced the notoriously private Patrick Sang to take part in it, the many many months she spent in Kenya and her observations and experiences with the greatest marathon runner of all time, Eliud Kipchoge. And his coach, Patrick Sang.

I’m a sucker for a running book. I’ve read just about every single one imaginable. This is my new favorite. 

(Disclosure: I am a Kipchoge fan boy. But this is so much more than a book about running or the guy behind the guy). 

Whether or not you buy or read the book. I do hope you enjoy the conversation with Sarah.

Thanks to Radix Nutrition for sponsoring this episode. 

Even before they jumped on board as a sponsor, I was a fan of their products. Now their protein powder is part of my daily diet plan. 

They are so much more than just protein and smoothie powder though. Check out their website to learn more about this kiwi company doing special things.
