In this episode, the very first episode of Running on Diesel, I sit down with Ben Schwartz. Ben is an investment banking analyst at Solomon Partners, a hyrox athlete, and is the definition of a glue guy. We discuss balancing the demands of his job in investment banking with his exercise and health regiment, digressing into hobbies, humor, and banter along the way. Enjoy!
