Running Times Magazine: Motor City Marathoner

Contributed By TriFatlete | Published: Aug 18, 2008


Brian Sell knows both the farmer’s and marathoner’s credos well. Growing up in rural south central Pennsylvania, he was surrounded by farmers, some of whom were his relatives, and learned early on their ethos of long days of hard work for often meager reward. “When I was 12 I worked at a YMCA day camp for $2 an hour, and the Y got half of that,” he says. Later, he got a summer job installing swimming pools. “There were a lot of 10-, 12-hour days,” he recalls. “You worked until the job got done.”
