Justin Gillette runs 110 miles a week. Gillette is a proffessional marathoner who is currently ranked 5th in the world and 2nd in the United States. Gillette says,”If you want to quit you’ll have to deal with it your whole life. What do you want, success or failure?”
Of the 110 mile he runs in a week, he runs 80 with his kids and 30 by himself. Gillette loves running and loves his kids which is one of the reasons he takes them running with him since he says, “Kids are more fun than winning a race.” He also says he runs twice a day in the summer, and once a day in the winter.
Gillette has been in 145-150 marathons so far and has won 77 of them. He says, “I’ve always wanted to not work.” Gillette is planning on running 20 more races this year and has 20 more states that he hasn’t raced in.
