An Open & Honest Conversation On The Ups & Downs Of The Sport Of Running With Saucony Pro Vanessa Fraser

Back on the podcast for her third appearance is the wise Vanessa Fraser! 

A lot has happened in the past year for Vanessa and we break it all down in today's conversation. 

Many professional runners talk about the importance of vulnerability in sharing the tougher moments of their careers, but very, very few do it. Vanessa is one of the few I know who is completely open about her full journey, and that always makes our conversations so insightful. 

If you're not familiar with Vanessa, she holds PRs of 4:09 in the 1500m, 14:48 in the 5k, and 31:52 in the 10k. In college, she was one of the most storied runners in Stanford history, where she was a 7xAll-American, and her school record of 15:09 in the 5k still stands. 

Vanessa currently runs for Saucony and Team BOSS. 

In today's conversation, we discuss the brutal realities of running at a high level, the ups and downs of Vanessa's career, her new deal with Saucony, her ambitions for the future, and much more!
