Back on the podcast is NCAA stud Parker Wolfe!
Since I last talked with Parker in September, he placed 9th at the 2023 NCAA XC National Championships, set a bunch of new PRs, and placed 2nd in both the 5k and 3k at the 2024 NCAA Indoor National Championships.
In addition to these recent accomplishments, Parker was first-team All-America status in three sports during the 2022-23 academic year: cross country, indoor track & field, and outdoor track & field. He holds records, such as setting a school record and an American Junior Record (U-20) in the 5,000 meters. In the 2022 NCAA Indoor Championships, he secured fifth place in the 5,000 meters, earning first-team All-America honors once more. He also gained first-team All-America accolades for the third time in the 2022-23 academic year, excelling in the outdoor 5000m event. In cross country, Parker's accomplishments are equally impressive, being named the 2022 ACC Men's Cross Country Athlete of the Year and earning All-America honors.
In today's conversation, Parker takes me through all of his recent success, what has gone into it, his vision for the coming months, why he hasn't signed an NIL deal, his thoughts on a draft coming to running, if Nico Young can be beat, and much more!
I always thoroughly enjoy my conversations with Parker and walk away feeling inspired.
