From cheerleader to two-time Olympian - discover the 'secret sauce' that transformed an accidental runner into a world champion.
Aisha Praught Leer is a two-time Olympian and holds seven national records for Jamaica, most notably as a gold medalist in the steeplechase at the 2018 Commonwealth Games. She is a founding member of Team Boss in Boulder, CO, and a community organizer, an advocate for the world's best athletes as a member of the World Athletics' Athletes Commission, and works full-time in tech.

having a process vs. outcome focus
the three key elements of creating high-performing teams
training and racing with elite athletes like Emma Coburn and Usain Bolt
the transition to corporate work (making 150 cold calls per week)
training in altitude and the local running community in Boulder
