Epi. 143-The Magnificent Master, Michael Gill

The Terminal Mile

Often times on the Terminal Mile, we shine a spotlight on athletes in their young 20s to mid 30s, living their physiologically best years chasing the top of the athletic world, but every now and again, there are other areas of our sport that really catch our eyes, and our imaginations. Michael Gill is one of those people. Beginning running in his teens, running with the notable Windsor Lancers, taking 5 years off from the sport, and eventually returning, Michael, an athlete born in 1977, has found his stride this year, capturing both the Ontario Masters 5,000, 14;44 and 10,000, 30:45 records. Michael joins us this week, and we talk about those races, what he enjoys about the sport, the legacy of Gary Malloy, twizzlers and more.
