"The Metronome” - M. Misch. 100K Milestone. Appreciate Your Ability. Always Take a Camera!
Special Veteran Spotlight!
Dr. Scott McNeal (Dr. M.) talks with Mr. Mark “The Metronome” Misch, current Head Men’s Cross Country/Assistant Track & Field Coach at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs. The 2023-2024 academic calendar signifies Mark’s 17th season with the university.
While leading his team to multiple D-II national championship finishes AND mentoring and coaching several post-collegiate runners both nationally and internationally, Mark runs. And runs. And runs. Could say that Coach has the runs! No big deal, some will say.
But this year the “Metronome” completes a running milestone. What is it? Ready? Mark surpasses over 100,000 career running miles. Yep, 100,000!
That is… rough calculation… a bit over 4 times around the world. And he has the old-school documentation to prove it.
Starting with his early moments in Coffeyville, Kansas, to his collegiate sport days, to an almost career-ending traffic accident, and not to mention that “scolding” at France's Arc de Triomphe, the “Metronome” reflects on his faith, coaching, personal trials, professional relationships, world travel, and that long, long, long run-up to the 100K mark.
So, let’s get into the head and heart space of my guest and friend, Coach Mark Misch.
