Nick Hauger - HOKA NAZ Elite

Nick  Hauger is a professional runner for HOKA Northern Arizona Elite and a co-host of the Running Rivals Podcast, both based out of Flagstaff, AZ.  In this episode, we talked about Nick's build to his debut marathon , CIM (California International Marathon), which is this Sunday December 5th.  Coming off a summer foot injury, Nick feels that doing the little things and leaning on his team have made a huge difference in his training consistency.  This consistency has put him in the best shape of his life and helped him recently achieve a top 10 finish at the USATF 25KM championships.  Nick is a plant-based athlete and shared how it has a positive impact on his health and running!  Listen to learn more about Nick, including his current favorite Athletic Brewing beer and who has the better facial hair between him and his fellow teammate, podcast co-host, and CIM competitor, Rory Linkletter.   This episode is extra special because we met Nick at Bruce Camp this past summer and Nick is now Jess's new coach.  We hope you enjoy our conversation as much as we did!  Who let the Haugs out?
