Today is Tuesday, August 19th, 2025 and on this day in 1946, Amby Burfoot was born in Charlottesville, Virginia.
In this episode, we’ll hear how Burfoot became the first college student to win the Boston Marathon in 1968 and how his career evolved from the running world to Runner’s World in the decades that followed, then welcome Amby Burfoot himself for a conversation about his lifelong love of the sport.
You can find Burfoot's books, including my favorite "First Ladies of Running" here, and check out his current endeavor with Marathon Handbook here.
