2026 Guardian Mile Recap
Josh and Joe recap the Guardian Mile, including Joe’s own race and a streak that somehow keeps rolling: 28 straight years of breaking 5:00 in the mile.
We talk about race day, what went well, what hurt, what I was thinking in the middle of it, and why this one meant a little more than just another time on the clock. We also get into what it feels like to keep chasing a standard for nearly three decades and how the reasons you compete change as you get older.
A little racing, a little reflection, and probably more discussion about a sub 5 mile than any grown men should reasonably have.
