Club Night: An Evening with Mario Fraioli (writer and running coach)

Come join us for a special evening of running/training wisdom and best practices harvested from years of experience and interactions, along with useful/pro tips that can be helpful during the marathon itself ("think" San Francisco Marathon). Our guest speaker will be the highly respected and sought after writer and coach - Mario Fraioli. He was the senior editor at Competitor magazine for six years and in November 2015 launched "the morning shakeout" - the popular weekly newsletter and podcast series about running. In his podcasts, Mario has interviewed just about every "who's who" there is in the running world, including: Shalane, Des, Meb, Ryan Hall, Bart Yasso, Dean Karnazes, Kara Goucher, Magda Boulet, Deena Kastor, and so many more, along with the best running/sports scientists of our time.

Mario was our guest for one of our SFRRC Club Nights last year and it's our pleasure to have him back with us. All are welcome - of course club members, but if you're not part of SFRRC or visiting for the marathon, you are invited too. Please come join us. There is no cost.

As a coach, Mario's enjoyed helping athletes work toward their goals, which over the years have ranged from first finish lines, personal bests, and Boston Marathon qualifying times to national championship titles, Olympic Trials appearances, international podiums, world championship teams, national records, and even the Olympic Games.

Mario grew up in Massachusetts, spent a few years in San Diego, and currently lives north of the Golden Gate Bridge with his wife Christine, their four bikes and dozens of pairs of running shoes. His experiences as an athlete, coach and journalist have provided a particularly unique perspective on the sport of running.

To feed our bellies we'll have lamb and veggie salads and sides of potatoes and protein from Souvla for all. We'll also have sparkling water and for those not holding back from wine or beer, we'll have that too. On a fun note, Mario and your track coach met at the Santa Rosa Half Marathon in 2015. Mario won that day, John took second.
