The Indoor National Meet is upon us! Today, on the Thursday before nationals, we hosted our first in-person D3 Glory Days event here in Virginia Beach. It was a huge success, and we'd like to offer a heartfelt thank you to everyone who waited in line, and came in to hang out with us for a bit.
Thanks to ON Running for partnering with us for this event!
This podcast is a collection of all the short interviews we did with athletes, coaches, and a surprise guest or two on site at Fathom Coffee. It's the first time we've done a 'live' style podcast, and it resulted in some fun, candid, stream of conscious style conversations. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Kamiyah Wooten is the freshman sensation that is No. 1 in the 200m right now. She has extreme confidence and trust in her coahces to propel her this weekend.

With the 2024 D3 Indoor Nationals this weekend, we turned the Mic over to our D3 National Champions on the D3GD team, Emily Richards and Cirrus Robinson. Emily won 9 titles and Cirrus won 4.
They interviewed reigning INDOOR champions to discuss strategy, mindset, and what i means to be a National Champion.
Noah and Stu were not D3 champions so we felt this was fun to have champs talk shop.
They interviewed Jackson Anderson from Williams, Victoria Kadiri from Johns Hopkins, Sam Blaskowski from UWL, and Gracie Holland from UWW.
Time Stamp:
Jackson Anderson - 3:22
Victoria Kadiri - 15:59
Sam Blaskowski - 25:25

"I promise you, if you are not in it to be a positive person, it's always going to show up"
If you're a fan of track and field, chances are you've seen Katelyn Hutchison's interviews.
Her positivity has taken over the mixed zones and gets amazing raw interviews out of the world's best track and field athletes.
She takes us through her experience at Worlds this past summer, specifically with her press room question to Sha'Carri Richardson.
It all started in 2022 when she was accepted in the Magic Boost program. She was competing at D3 Nationals so missed the meet they were supposed to attend and was thrown into the Mixed Zone at USAs. With little experience, she leaned into her track and field passion and delievered amazing interviews.
On the track, she was an All-American at Ithaca College and was apart of two trophy winning teams. She transferred to UK to earn a Master's degree and shares how the transition has gone.
She is now a contributor for Forbes Magazine as they want a presence in the Olympic year.
She hosts a Podcast with Jasmine Todd for CITIUS Mag.
She does it all.

Did you enjoy reading the bios on the Atlanta and Orlando Olympic Trials? Jay Holder brought that to the Atlanta trials and carried it over to Orlando.
You've also probably heard Jay's voice/name before as he's moderated many pro running event's press conferences and will carry that honor at the Paris Olympics.
At the trials this year, Jay was the Media Director and responsible for all things media. From getting stories out to the masses of qualifiers to telling Clayton Young's wife she can go hug him post race, Jay was doing it all.
That brief description doesn't do his role justice and he give great detail into what happened behind the scenes at the Trials.
He is currently the Executive Director of Running USA but prior to joining, he was the Vice President of Marketing and Communications for the Atlanta Track Club. He outlines what he's currently working on at Running USA and recaps his time at Atlanta Track Club.
Jay walks us through his background of his time at Oswego State was the catalyst for how he was able to combine his passion for running into a career in the running industry.
For his own training, he's currently preparing to run Rim to Rim to Rim in the Grand Canyon with a few friends this Spring.
This is a great episode for those wanting to know what happens behind the scenes at a major running event.

"I don't think previous results really can predict future returns."
Josh Kalapos crossed the Berlin Marathon finish line and his watch showed 2:18:01. He had to go find someone for the officials results before he saw it: 2:18:00. Right at the Olympic Trials qualification mark.
This makes Josh the last man in.
Josh experienced the highs and lows in college. One of his best moments was winning the UAA Indoor 5k. The low was ending his senior track season on a broken tibula.
When he moved to Boston to work at Amazon Robotics after graduation, his friends randomly ran a marathon. This sparked Josh's marathon journey.
He jumped into a half marathon and ran 66 minutes which gave him the confidence to go after the OTQ.
He's been training with the BAA and believes there is more in the tank than his 2:18 shows.
Josh has the confidence to take big swings and is excited to see what he can do.

"I don't really have a tangible time or placing that would make a race good or bad. I am really excited to get out there and to race and push myself in ways I haven't before, but also continue to listen to my body and what's going on within the race."
Gabi Rooker is taking the running scene by storm after her 2:24 marathon in Chicago. Last week, she announced she signed a pro deal with Nike.
At the age of 36, Rooker enters the trials seeded 9th and she ran first marathon was in 2021.
Rooker was a gymnast at UW-La Crosse and didn't begin running until after she graduated.
Her first race to show up on her World Athletics page is a 10 miler in 2019.
With a low lifetime mileage count, Rooker focuses on her training rather than racing a whole lot. She takes big swings at each race and it pays off with how her progression has been.
From 2:56 to 2:24, Gabi has enjoyed this ride and is ready to take on the challenge of the Olympic Trials

“You have to love it to want to keep going out the door every day and trying something hard and scary, but also exciting”
Kim Horner began her marathon career in 2015 when she had a little fomo that she wasn’t running the Twin Cities Marathon with her friends.
It’s the community that brought her to the marathon and what continues to be her driving force behind her success. Shoutout @millcityrunning
The culture at Luther is something she still thinks about today and has influenced her marathon career.
In her debut, she ran 2:56 and in 2022 ran her OTQ of 2:36:43.
Patience, perseverance and progression has been the theme of Horner’s career as she never made it to the state meet in high school nor an All-American in college.
Catch Kim in Orlando ready to take on the strong field!

"I definitely started getting to the point where I thought maybe I'm just a 2:34 guy. I'm just a high 15 5k guy and I'm okay with it."
Ryan Jara left Hope College as a 15:54 5ker. He enjoyed running and continued running well past graduation.
He had hit some of his goals, ran 73 minutes in a half marathon and as of 2019 was a 2:34 marathoner.
As time went on things began to click. Workouts were getting faster and the encouragement from his wife never waned.
In 2022, he made a big jump to 2:23 and the goal of the trials that seemed so distant didn't look to far away.
At the McKirdy Micro Marathon, Jara ran 2:17:19 to qualify for the Olympic Trials at the age of 36.
He credits his longevity to enjoying his runs and being adaptable in training.
His perspective of how he balances life, family and running will provide inspiration to all that are balancing all three.

Happy New Year!
We kick off 2024 with Holly Clarke - a Johns Hopkins grad.
Holly is gearing up for her 2nd Olympic Trials next month and is excited to bringing more experience and miles to the line with her.
To get to the 2020 trials, Holly took off 30 minutes from her time going from 3:12 to 2:42. During that time she realized she was under fueling and worked to properly fuel her body for a big breakthrough.
The key for Holly has been having a community around her. After graduation, she took time off of running but when she moved to San Fransisco she joined the Impala Racing Team.
Being around teammates and others training at a high level has inspired her to keep the dream alive after graduation.
At Johns Hopkins, she came in not on the varsity lineup and worked her way into the top 5 her junior and senior year. She was a part of two national champion teams but has mixed views of her time in college. She developed an eating disorder - which she talks about in the episode.
This episode has a theme of growth and progression. Steadily improving year after year and continuing to learn about what works for you.
Check out Holly's coaching Instagram and her website.
