In this Boston Marathon special episode and series on Marni On The Move, I connect with Alex Masai, HOKA pro runner ahead of race day at the HOKA Light House pop-up. This short, on-the-ground conversation dives into Masai’s race strategy, mindset heading into Boston, and what life looks like for him when he’s not competing. Masai went on to deliver a strong performance, finishing 9th at the 130th Boston Marathon with a time of 2:05:32.

The episode opens with a finish line clip, bringing you straight into the energy of race day before heading back to this pre-race conversation.
