January 06, 2022 34. Coach Samantha Gerrits; Viera HS; High School Training, Fueling for Performance, & More
If you enjoy this episode, consider checking out my ongoing work on The Running Shorts Podcast.

In this episode I spoke to the coach of the No. 1 ranked team in the state of Florida. Samantha led Viera HS to a boys XC state title in 2021. Her top runner, Michael Toppi, set a new state record (14:41) and finished 30th in the country. We discuss her running background, how she got into coaching, and how she helps her runners get the best out of themselves.

I apologize for the audio quality on this one. Samantha was at a conference while we were recording this episode and the wifi was not cooperating. However, she was steadfast in her resolution to make it work and we pulled through. Thank you coach!
