My guest for the latest episode of the Masters Milers podcast is Sid Howard. I’m honored to have Sid as a teammate of mine on Central Park Track Club. Sid is an elder statesman in the masters running community and has been a mentor to many great masters runners over the years. Over the course of his 40+ year masters running career Sid won 50 national championships, set five world records and won eight world championship gold medals.  Sid was the first man over age 60 to break 2:15 for the indoor 800m, and later that same year, he set the American Record in the outdoor 800m running 2:12, a record that stood for many years until Nolan Shaheed finally broke it. He was inducted into the USATF Masters Hall of Fame in 2005.  Show Notes: Profile of Sid ahead of a recent Fifth Avenue Mile: https://www.lifetimerunning.net/2018/09/profile-sid-howard-has-finished-35.html Podium Runner article where Sid is quoted: https://www.podiumrunner.com/training/8-secrets-of-lifetime-runners/ You can catch the latest episode on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts ,TuneIn and Spotify.

Sid Howard ran his first marathon in 1978 at the age of 39. He ran eight more marathons until finally deciding to forego the distance in order to focus on racing the mile. This decision allowed his talent to truly shine. Over a long career, Sid continued to surpass his own performances. Sid has earned over fifty National masters titles, six U.S. records, five world records, eight world championship medals, and in 2005 he was inducted into the USATF Masters Hall of Fame. Sid holds American indoor records for M65-69 of 2:19.4 for the 800m, 5:23.05 for the mile, and 4:45.36 for 1500m. Behind these accolades is a grateful man who loves life and who loves to share his enthusiasm for running with those around him. Sid is a mentor, coach, inspiration, and ambassador of the sport. He is a beautiful story-teller with a well of wisdom and experience. More than winning any particular race or record, Sid’s story is about the power of persistence, determination, and hard work. It is a story about the twisting turns of life and how the skills gained in athletic training can bleed into other areas of life. Sid embodies joyful living and joyful running. This episode is a privilege to share, thank you, Sid.
