Alen Yen

About The Author

Alen Yen is a thoroughly mid-pack runner who's mismanged over 20 marathons. He has extensive first-hand experience with glocogen depletion, cracked toenails, and bloody thighs. A 6-time loser at qualifying for Boston (twice finishing within 60 seconds of the cutoff!), he's particularly known for stellar track sessions that don't necessarily translate into effective distance running. 

A certified run coach, former run club president, shoe tester, and Abbott Six Star medalist, he enjoys dwelling on the past, overanalyzing, and furiously jotting it all down.
