We sit down for a candid, sometimes emotional, conversation with Colin Peddie, owner of Marathon Sports. Marathon has 18 stores, across three different names throughout the New England Area. Colin talks about how he grew his business from one to 18 stores without borrowing a dollar and shares the business philosophy and strategy that allowed him to accomplish this amazing feat. He also shares his harrowing first-hand experience from the day of the Boston Marathon bombing in 2013, which took place less than 10 yards from his main store on Boylston Street. Mark and Neil enjoyed the conversation so much, they recorded some behind the scenes banter with Colin after the main interview has been completed. It’s truly a memorable episode.
