Running career

High school

Pennel attended Golden High School in Golden, Colorado, where he recorded personal bests of 4:25 in the 1600 and 9:49 in the 3200.[2]

Collegiate

Pennel stayed in Colorado and committed to Western State College where he won an individual national title, a team national title, and was an 11-time All-American.[3] His individual title was his first place finish in the men's 10,000 meters at the 2012 NCAA DII Outdoor T&F Championships.[4] At Western State, Pennel trained almost always at an altitude higher than 4,000 feet.[4]

Post-collegiate

Pennel won the 2014 Twin Cities Marathon in his marathon debut.[5] He then competed at the 2014 IAAF World Half Marathon Championships where he finished 33rd.[6] On June 4, 2015, Pennel ran his first sub-four minute mile at the Festival of Miles in St. Louis, where he finished second in 3:58.99.[7]

In 2016, Pennel competed in the Olympic Marathon Trials which doubled as the USA Marathon Championships in Los Angeles where he finished 5th in 2:14:57.[8]

Pennel planned to compete in the 5000m and 10000m trials for the 2016 Olympics but a stress fracture in April ended his Olympic plans.

In his first 2016 race back from injury, he finished 8th in the 2016 NYC Marathon, with a time of 2:15:09.[9] He was the third American man across the finish line.
