Episode 93 of TheFinalSprint.com Podcast, the most listened to running podcast in North America, features my interview with NICK SYMMONDS.
In the interview Nick talks about his rookie season as a professional, how his performance in Osaka was affected by the wear and tear of a heavy, summer racing scheduling, and the thrill of watching Bernard Lagat win the 5,000m gold.
Download the podcast to hear Nick discusses these topics, as well as, why Marion Jones’ relay teammates should return their Olympic medals (and why he would do the same if in their position), planning to “train like a miler or 5k guy” this winter to build up his endurance, and aiming for the American indoor record in the 1,000m (which he says may be his “perfect distance”) when he kicks off the season at the Boston Indoor Games.
