Drew Hunter On His Next Chapter In Running, Lessons From Fatherhood, Learning To Love Running Again, & Reflections From The Best Season Of His Career

The Running Effect Podcast

Back on the podcast, full of wisdom and insights is Drew Hunter!

Drew had a remarkably successful season where he PRd at every distance. He ran 3:33 in the 1500m, 13:08 in the 5k, and 27:38 in the 10k. Drew placed 4th at the US Olympic Trials in the 10k, his highest-ever finish at a US Olympic Trials.

Before his professional career, he set the national indoor mile record for high school boys in 2016. He was also named the Gatorade National Cross-Country Runner of the Year in 2016. He committed to the University of Oregon on November 12, 2015, but instead decided to pursue a professional career by signing with Adidas. He then went on to co-found professional running team / brand Tinman Elite.

In today's conversation, Drew takes me through his current outlook on the sport, the power of becoming a dad and how that's affected his mindset on the sport, what his next steps in sport / life are, his 2024 season, the best books he's read, what he wants to do when he's hung up the spikes, and much more!

I always love my conversations with Drew as they are always thoughtful and packed to the brim with insights. Don't miss this one!
