22 juni 2023 · 1 uur 8 min
Today's conversation with Roisin Willis is one of the most important and impactful conversations I've ever released. Lees meer
Normally I write fancy bio's about the guest and their accomplishments. Today I just want to say take the time to listen to this conversation and hear Roisin's story. It is impactful beyond words, and I know you will be impacted by it. I'm still shocked at how wise, eloquent, and brave Roisin is for only being eighteen years old. Her courage to speak up and share her story is nothing short of inspiring.

Running Towards Greatness: Inside The Journey Of Hoka Professional Runner & NCAA All-American Abby Nichols
20 juni 2023 · 47 min
Today I have the privilege of speaking with Abby Nichols! Lees meer
I had the great honor of doing a live podcast with Abby this past month in St. Louis the evening before she ran 4:26.08 in the mile. From the moment I met her, I knew Abby was genuinely an amazing human being. I did her cooldown with her after she ran that race, as we dove into the depths of philosophy, trust, and other subjects that I normally discuss on the podcast. At that point, I knew I had to get Abby on for a proper long-form conversation and display her depth and wisdom.
For those unfamiliar with Abby, she is a standout distance runner with an impressive track record (no pun intended). She was a State Champion in both track and cross country during her high school years in Kettering, Ohio. At Ohio State University and later the University of Colorado, she showcased her talent, earning multiple accolades, such as the Big 10 Champion in the 5,000 meters and three-time Pac 12 Champion. Abby's success continued as she joined HOKA NAZ Elite last summer, achieving remarkable performances both on the track and grass, setting personal bests, team records, and securing top finishes at national championships. Her dedication and passion for running has made her a rising star in the world of distance running.
In this conversation, you'll hear about Abby's journey in the sport, the different adversity she's faced throughout her career, handling failures, why having a short-term memory in sport is so important, separating your identity from your sport, and much more. This conversation was wide-ranging and packed with depth. I know you'll find great value in Abby's story and the wisdom she shares.

A Conversation With Jackson Heidesch After Eclipsing The Four Minute Barrier & Becoming The First Ever High School Iowan To Do It
8 juni 2023 · 1 uur 4 min
THE KING OF IOWA RETURNS TO THE PODCAST. Lees meer
On June 1, 2023, at the Hoka Festival of Miles, Jackson Heidesch became the 20th-ever prep boy to break four minutes in the mile. Jackson ran 3:59.08 to become the 10th fastest boy in history at the distance. A feat that was thought to be "physically impossible" less than a century ago, Jackson went and did the impossible, yet this wasn't unimaginable to those who know Jackson and have seen his years of hard work and dedication leading up to this accomplishment.
I had the privilege of spending most of the day with Jackson leading into his race. From hanging out at breakfast to going to the world-famous Arch, I saw Jackson prepare and get ready to attack history. Because of that, today's conversation is more special than most of mine due to being able to go through a plethora of topics surrounding the race and preparing for it.
In today's conversation, you will hear all about the race, how Jackson prepared for it, what he's looking to do next, and hilarious stories from the day leading into the race that are one of a kind.
I hope you all take some time to listen to this inspirational and, at times, hilarious discussion with my friend and the King of Iowa, Jackson Heidesch.

Breaking Barriers: Olympian & American Record Holder Evan Jager's Journey Of Becoming The Greatest American Steeplechaser Of All Time
2 juni 2023 · 1 uur 19 min
Today on the podcast is the man, the myth, the legend, Evan Jager. Lees meer
For those who aren't familiar with Evan, he is undoubtedly the greatest American at the 3000m Steeplechase ever. Evan won a Silver Medal in the steeplechase at the 2016 Olympics in Rio, won Bronze at the 2017 World Championships in London; he has the American Record in the 3,000m Steeplechase with a time of 8:00.45, and get this, he holds the top 9 spots on the U.S. Top 10 All-Time 3000m Steeple list.
In high school, he won everything there was to win in Illinois high school competition, claiming titles in XC, 1600m, and 3200m, as well as anchoring the State Record 4x800m. He then went to the University of Wisconsin for one year before deciding to move to Portland to go all-in on his running career, moving with Coach Jerry Schumacher and being one of the original members of the now Bowerman Track Club.
In today's conversation, Evan goes through his upbringing in the sport from winning a Mustang by breaking five minutes in the mile to setting state records along the way. He then discusses his professional career and all the different elements, the highs, and the lows, that have shaped who he is today.

The 'Stepping-Up' Fallacy, Why Champions Are Broken, How To Improve Your Luck & Other Anomalies On Running & Excellence With Alex Ostberg
31 mei 2023 · 1 uur 6 min
Today's conversation will challenge you. It will stretch you to think on deep topics that ultimately impact the quality and impact of your pursuit within sport and life. While it may be deeper and more philosophical than most of my podcasts, you'll walk away from this conversation thinking about how you view success specifically as it pertains to running completely different. Lees meer
My close friend and mentor Alex Ostberg is always full of deep insights that contain invaluable wisdom. So it's always a treat whenever I can convince him to come on the podcast.
For those unfamiliar with Alex, he is an eight-time NCAA All-American.

Alex holds PRs of 3:58 in the Mile, 7:49 in the 3k, 13:18 in the 5k, and 28:49 in the 10k. He also has a Bachelor's Degree in human biology, a minor in psychology, and a master's in public health.
Alex is an incredibly perspicacious and ebullient speaker who has a wealth of knowledge, experience, and depth. In this conversation, Alex shares his wisdom on why most champions are broken, how to improve your luck, the "stepping-up" fallacy, why "How you do one thing is how you do everything" is a myth, how success is largely the failures you avoid, and much more. I always walk away from my conversations with Alex enlightened and a better version of myself. I'm so confident you'll say the same after listening.

26 mei 2023 · 46 min
Today on the podcast, I have the privilege of speaking with artist and accomplished runner Zach Litoff! Lees meer
Zach is the man behind the cover art for The Running Effect and has worked with clients such as Nike and New Balance. He started Litoff Studio's where he carries his passion for the intersection of art and running, leading the charge in this arena. When he's not cooking up some incredible piece of art, you can find Zach cruising at a nice clip running 75-mile weeks in the Bay Area.
Zach ran for Santa Clara University, where he was the first-ever athlete from that school to make the NCAA Track & Field Outdoor Championships. From a kid who didn't break 16 minutes in the 5k in high school, Zach's journey has been unorthodox and special. He uses his story, passion for the sport, and incredible art to inspire others.
I loved this conversation and all the different topics discussed. We go through Zach's careers in art and running and all the fun things he's up to! If you want a fun, light-hearted, and inspiring conversation, this podcast is for you!

Today on the podcast series "The Road To Hayward" is Irene Riggs and Sophia Kennedy, friends and future teammates at Stanford University this fall! Lees meer
Irene Riggs and the word "history" belong in the same sentence. Over the past year, Irene has made history in her home state of West Virginia and on the National Stage. Irene became the first athlete from West Virginia ever to win a national cross country title, and she did so in remarkable fashion, overcoming cold, windy conditions at NXN to produce the No. 2 all-time mark of 16:40.9 at Glendoveer Golf Course in Oregon. She also ran the second-fastest high school girls' 5K cross country race in history with her 16:02.1 effort at the Nike Southeast Regional. Irene also made her first U.S. National Team by winning the 2023 USATF U20 XC title. This track season, Irene ran 9:45.97 in the 3200m at the Spire Scholastic Showcase Meet, became the Nike Indoor National Champion in the Mile, winning in 4:38.23, and won the Arcadia Invitational 3200m in a meet record time of 9:52.66.
Irene is also a fantastic selfless individual off the grass and track. She is the Vice President of the student body at her school, a student council representative at Morgantown, and has spent hours doing community service. Through these accomplishments, Irene became the 2022-2023 Gatordate National Girls Cross-Country Player of The Year.
Sophia Kennedy has slowly cemented herself as one of the greatest runners in Indiana state history. Last fall, Sophia placed seventh at the Nike Cross Nationals, a week after taking second at the Champs Sports Midwest Region Championships.

Beyond The Finish Line: Olympian Andrew Wheating's Unfiltered Tales Of Triumph & Tribulation
22 mei 2023 · 1 uur 6 min
Every few months, I have a conversation that blows me away; today is one of those conversations. From the minute Andy hopped on the call, I knew we were in for a good one. Lees meer
Today on the podcast, I have the great privilege of speaking with the one and only Andrew Wheating. Andy is currently the Operations and Content Manager at the On Athletics Club. But long before Andy was working for On to push forward the sport, he was running world-class times and making history on the track. From 2008 to 2012, he won three NCAA titles, made two Olympic teams and a World Championship team, and ran personal bests of 1:44.56 for 800, 3:30.90 for 1500, and 3:51.74 for the mile.
I ask my guests before every conversation, "What will make this a home-run for you?" and Andy replied something to the extent of "I'm an open book so don't back from asking anything you're curious about." Well, I took that to heart and asked Andy many deep questions surrounding his career and life. This made for a raw and impactful conversation that blew my expectations out of the water. Andy's ability to share stories in an engaging and reflective way I've rarely seen replictaed.
So I hope you all enjoy today's conversation as much as I did having it.

For those who aren't familiar with Yaseen, he went from a 24:42 5k in high school to NCAA Champion at the University of Texas. His story is nothing short of inspiring and impactful. Yaseen is a man who works harder than almost everyone I know and has a smile on his face while doing it. Yaseen has become one of the top runners in the NCAA due to this work-ethic and unbreakable belief in himself that he can and will prevail.
In his second appearance on the podcast, he brings many nuggets of wisdom. I mean, the man does not miss. Every time I speak with Yaseen, he's always bringing the fire. In this episode, he shares his thoughts on quick fixes, why the long road is always better, his performance at SECs, how to rebound from disappointing performances, and he closes out the episode by directly sharing a message with you all.
Someone once DMd and said they listen to the Yaseen podcast 3-4 times a week, so I hope round two is worthy of that kind of attention. So tap in and enjoy the Yaseen Abdalla Special.

The Inside Scoop With NCAA Star & Author Emily Cole

Back for her third appearance and straight off of a hair crisis (iykyk) is my good friend, Emily Cole! Lees meer
For those who aren't familiar with Emily, she is an accomplished runner who competes for Duke University. She is also an author and positive light on social media, impacting millions of lives every single month. Behind all the accolades, is a genuinely amazing human being who I always thoroughly talking with and learning from her.
Emily is one of the top runners in the NCAA, consistently pushing forward the sport through her performances on the track. Just this past season, Emily played a key role in Duke's NCAA Championship DMR squad leading off on the 1200m leg. A few weeks prior, Emily ran a PR of 4:42.81 in the Mile in the 2023 ACC Indoor Track & Field Championships Mile prelims. The very next day, in the finals, she ran 4:43.54, closing in a 2:13 last 800m! Emily's true passion lies in jumping over hurdles in the water in an event called the steeplechase. Emily won Silver in this event at the 2022 ACC Outdoor Championships, qualified for the NCAA championships, became an NCAA Second-Team All-American, AND made the freaking US National Championships with her qualifying time of 9:48.20!
Emily will look to further cement her legacy in the NCAA in her final seasons. While I may be biased knowing Emily, she is one to watch out for. Whether she has a baton in her hand or is jumping over a water pit, she is probably making history in the process.
This conversation today was ride-ranging and impactful. I picked Emily's mind on confidence, gratitude, burnout, reflection, and much more. If you're looking for inspiration and insights on how to cultivate a positive mindset, fall in love with, enjoy the journey, and more, then you won't want to miss this conversation with Emily.
With her impressive achievements in running, social media, and writing, as well as her infectious positivity and genuine personality, Emily is sure to leave you feeling uplifted and motivated…

Since that appearance on the podcast, Dylan ran the #2 best time ever in NCAA history in the 3k, clocking 7:36 in the 3k at the 2023 Millrose Games. He then went on to win two SEC titles (one in the 5k, one in the DMR). He then claimed first place in the 5,000-meter at the NCAA Championships with a time of 13:37.59 - good enough to break the facility record, high-altitude collegiate record, and become the first NCAA men's 5k champion in Tenessee program history. Later in the meet, he placed 6th in the 3k claiming Tennessee's best finish in the event at nationals since 1995.
All of these accomplishments in the indoor season paved the way for Dylan to win the highly prestigious "National Athlete Of The Year" award. Dylan currently sits on the Bowerman Watch List (The Heisman Trophy for Track & Field).
In this conversation, Dylan recaps all of the above with his reflections, lessons learned, and how it's propelling him forward in this outdoor track season. This conversation is full of wisdom and insights that will inspire and motivate you to chase after your biggest goals.

I looked up the word "Unbelievable," went to the images tab, and a picture of Juliette came up. Guys, she legitimately won the team title at the 2023 Ohio Indoor State Meet BY HERSELF. A feat so incredible and historic, that ESPN posted about it. She won four separate events clinching a title and history in the process. Juliette then went on to win a National Title at New Balance Nationals. This outdoor season she is looking to do even greater things. She is committed to compete for the University of Cincinnati this year.
In this conversation, Juliette goes through her start in the sport, this past indoor season and all the historic events that came with it, what her training looks like (my jaw dropped), her ambitions for the future, what it's like being an Aunt, and so much more!
This conversation was nothing short of inspiring. Juliette's passion for her craft shines through in this episode, and I'm confident you'll walk away from this conversation all the more motivated to chase after excellence in your own life.

Jackson Heidesch is a kid on fire. Lees meer
This past indoor season, he won the Hoka Misfit 2-mile in a historic time of 8:42.6. He then went on to place second at NBNI in the 2-mile and two days later won the mile in stunning fashion diving for the win and a 4:02.25. This past fall on the grass, Jackson won NXR Northeast and placed 5th at NXN. He has also won back-to-back individual and team state titles. Jackson has etched his name into the Iowa high school history books through these historic performances.
In this conversation, Jackson takes us through his history in the sport, from a freshman who was just starting to gain interest in the sport to a 4:02 miler with plans of breaking the four-minute-mile barrier. We also discuss what made Duke stand out from other schools, winning his first national meet in dramatic fashion (reference image), his goals for this upcoming year, how he wants to be remembered in Iowa history, how he's handling March Madness Ls, the power of training through Iowa winters, and much more!
Jackson is an extremely eloquent speaker who was delightful to have a conversation with! His stories and experiences in the sport were both fun and inspiring to listen to. Needless to say, make time to listen to this episode, you won't regret it.
