Today on the podcast is Coach Will Palmer!


He is the Associate Head Coach for Cross Country and Assistant Track and Field at the University of Florida. 


During the 2024 indoor season, Coach Palmer coached Parker Valby to two NCAA Individual Championships (3000m & 5000m). Valby's 5000m at the NCAA Indoor Championships not only earned her first place but was a new collegiate record (breaking her own set earlier the same season), meet record, facility record, school record, and personal record.Coach Palmer also coached Flomena Asekol to an NCAA Indoor Championship appearance. 


Coach Palmer comes to Florida from Alabama where he spent the last five years working with the distance runners. While at Alabama, he helped coach the Crimson Tide Women's cross country team to the 2022 SEC Cross Country Team Championship and a third place finish at the 2022 NCAA Cross Country Championships. 


Prior to his time at Alabama, Palmer spent time at Georgetown (2016-18), Western Kentucky (2015-16), Iowa State (2013-15), and two years as the operations director for the track & field and cross country teams at Oklahoma (2011-13).


In today's conversation, Coach Palmer takes me through his journey in sport, all things coaching Parker Valby, his vision for the University of Florida, and much more!
