Podcast Episode #21: Jud Brooker and Collegiate Cross Country and Track & Field Coaching

In this episode, I talk with my former team-mate and training partner, Jud Brooker. Jud is a USATF Level 2 Jumps Coach and has an undergraduate degree in Physical Education and a Master's degree in Curriculum and Development. We discuss how much Jud hated academics and college classes but how much he loves the college lifestyle and being a collegiate coach. We also discuss the recruiting process, the high's and low's of collegiate coaching, and how important it is to know the tradition of sport while being open to innovation and progression.
