The Year in Interviews: Looking Back on 2017



Athlete interviews are my favorite kind of content, and are indisputably one of the most important things that we do at MileSplit. It's always interesting to hear athletes (and coaches, for that matter) talking about training, race tactics, their mental approach, or whatever random stuff happens to come up in the interview. It's easy to look at super-talented runners as time-generating machines, and forget that they're really just regular high school students and teen-aged kids, with the same interests, problems, and joys that everyone else has. To recognize that, we wanted to bring you some of our favorite athlete interviews from 2017, and we hope you find them as engaging as we do!
