Sydney Gidabuday dominated the DII running scene, winning 7 national championships and running the school record for the 5k at powerhouse Adams St. Now, he's back running under a Vigil system with Roots Running and looking to build upon the success of last year's 3rd place finish at the USATF 5k National Championships (13:53). He recently hit a PR of 61:09 at the Houston Half Marathon, and I was lucky enough to sit down with Syd to discuss this race and what he's hoping for in 2022.
