"The way I run is my biggest strength but I also think it’s pretty entertaining and I want to be remembered not just for winning but for how I win races. I want people to think like this race is going to be entertaining because he’s in it."
2024 1500m World Indoor Champion George Beamish, who was also just named to New Zealand's Olympic team for Paris in the steeplechase, finally debuts on The CITIUS MAG Podcast.
He is coming off the best season of his career. In 2023, coach Dathan Ritzenhein decided it was time to go all-in on the steeplechase and it was a season-long experiment. He managed to get his personal best all the way down to 8:13 at the Monaco Diamond League and then put together one of the best performances of his career by finishing 5th in the World Championship final and third in the Diamond League final.
Heading into 2024, he has a chance at the medals in the steeplechase.
Mac Fleet and George talk about how he's developed in the event, his lethal Textbook George kick and what would make for a successful 2024 for him.

He is good for humanity!❤ He does really well educating new fans on what racing is about rather than the focus on times. His love and understanding of middle distance running is so instinctive. A true runner like him should have a world title. He’s truly good for the sport.

@jimrabbit96 Месяц назад

Broke 2 for the first time after watching this. Helped me shift the focus away from the time and just race and that was all the difference. Love the philosophy hes got. Certainly one of my favorites even as an American.

A Racer not a Pacer .. Awesome interview. Best quote "I'm just a Runner !!!"

Great interview, and what a fantasic view George has with the sport. Chilled and enjoying the life of a pro athlete. Words of wisdom right there. Cheers

Beamish is a star ⭐️. So happy for him. A real Championship racer with a fantastic gift and instinct for racing. I think world records should be a pure part of racing when someone breaks away and goes for it as part of the race. Some people are better at time trialing and front running and their goal is a fast time and they hope they can hold on for the win. It’s a legitimate strategy for guys like Jacob. I think the only place for world record attempts with lights and pacers should be a special demonstration event like the sub-2hr marathon event and shouldn’t actually count as a real world record. I also agree the commentators are obsessed with times too.
