Anton Krupicka ’14

Anton has had a heckuva few months–and says he’s back in shape to win on the trails.  As an athlete with such a stout resume, he has set himself up for Speedgoat, then UTMB later in the summer–both races that require a fair amount of climbing prowess–and he’ll be racing hard for the podium. In this interview, I compare Anton to Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton (wait, what?), we talk injury, Speedgoat, Hardrock, pro runners, over-racing, and what type of person it takes to succeed in this silly sport. Episode Notes: Anton is sponsored by New Balance, Buff, and Ultimate Direction Here’s his blog. Follow Speedgoat here on ultrasportslive.tv on race day. Outro music: The Rat by The Walkmen
