Episode 635: Emily Mackay: Tokyo Worlds, Moving to Boulder, and Confidence in the 1500


Listen Later

Hey friends, welcome to I’ll Have Another. Today I’m catching up with Emily Mackay, who just made her third World Championships team and is heading to Tokyo to race the 1500 for Team USA. Emily became an Olympian last year after placing second at the 2024 Olympic Trials, and she’s also an indoor bronze medalist from 2024. We talk about her rapid progression, that unforgettable 3:55 at the Trials, and what has changed since her move to Boulder and joining coach Pete Julian. Emily shares how she is building confidence, how she is approaching championship rounds, and what she’s focusing on as she steps onto the world stage again.
