Larry Eder has been involved in athletics for 52 years. Larry has experienced sports as an athlete, coach, magazine publisher, and now a journalist and blogger. His first article, about Don Bowden, America’s first 4-minute miler, was published in RW in 1983. Larry has published several magazines on athletics, from USA Track and Field to the American version of Spikes magazine. He currently leads content and marketing development for RunningNetwork, The Shoe Addicts, and RunBlogRun. On RunBlogRun, his daily pilgrimage with the sport, Larry says: “I have to admit, I love traveling to long-distance meets, writing about the sport I love and the athletes I respect, for my readers at runblogrun.com, the most I’ve ever done besides running.” Also does some updates for BBC Sports at major events which he really enjoys.
