A bombshell new report reveals how LIV Golf plans to survive without unlimited funding. In this episode of The Golf Podcast we break down a bombshell new report detailing what a potential LIV Golf 2.0 could look like as the league fights for its future. With reports suggesting LIV Golf has already lost billions of dollars and may be running out of time to secure new investment, we examine the proposed restructuring plan that could reshape professional golf. From team majors and signature events to player equity and reduced purses, we discuss how LIV hopes to attract investors while keeping stars like Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm on board. We also dive into reports that every remaining LIV Golf event this season could be in jeopardy, the league’s unusual 47-day break, and what it all means for players, fans, and the ongoing battle with the PGA Tour. Is LIV Golf truly on the verge of collapse, or does this new vision provide a realistic path forward? Plus, we analyze Bryson’s apparent commitment to the league, Jon Rahm’s future, the role of the Public Investment Fund (PIF), and whether LIV’s international success can be enough to save the league.

Venice has always lived with water. But after the catastrophic flood of 1966, that uneasy coexistence increasingly came to be governed through large-scale technological control. Through the controversial history of the MOSE barriers, the episode explores how infrastructures reorganize socio-natural relations and transform the political struggle over who gets to govern the lagoon.  Written by Quentin Baladi, Chiara Caruso, Sanjana Shankar, and Emma Veneziani. Narrated by Dafni Riga. Edited by Stella De Luca. Post-production and sound design by Giorgio Mattina. The series was developed within the course Conflict Management and Resolution (2025–2026), taught by Carolina Pacchiand Giancarlo Vecchi at Politecnico di Milano. This episode was produced for educational and research purposes.

The PGA Tour is making its biggest schedule changes in years — and combined with LIV Golf's uncertain future, professional golf could look very different by 2027. In this week's episode of The Golf Podcast we break down the latest major shakeups coming to the PGA Tour schedule and what they could mean for the future of professional golf. With Brian Rolapp outlining his vision for stronger fields, fewer weak spots, and a schedule that better motivates the top players to show up, the Tour appears to be moving toward a more streamlined, high-stakes model beginning in 2027. We discuss the removal of the Hawaii swing, the American Express becoming the new season opener, the reshuffled West Coast, Florida, and Texas swings, and why events like the Cadillac Championship, Arnold Palmer Invitational, CJ Cup Byron Nelson, Valspar Championship, and PGA Championship are all being repositioned. We also look at the bigger picture, including whether this could eventually lead to a two-tier PGA Tour schedule in 2028 and beyond. Plus, we discuss the latest LIV Golf uncertainty, including reports of a possible reduced 10-event international schedule as the league searches for new investors. Are these changes good for fans, players, sponsors, and the game overall? We unpack it all.   Listen to This Week’s Show Download on iTunes here Listen on Spotify here Thanks to this Week’s Sponsors Titleist is committed to ensuring that every golf ball delivers superior quality and consistency.  From ball to ball, dozen to dozen we should expect our golf ball to perform exactly the same way, shot after shot.

"We put ourselves on the line to help other people accomplish their dreams, and that was pretty freaking awesome." It's another Throwback Thursday, and this time we're going back to December 2019 for one of my all-time favorite episodes. At the 2019 California International Marathon (CIM), 72 women ran faster than 2 hours 45 minutes, officially qualifying to run the 2020 Olympic Trials in the marathon. Leading several dozen of those women were Menso de Jong, Chris Stehula, and Ken Rakestraw — the official sub-2:45 pace group leaders. None of them had ever run a 2:45 marathon before. This is their story. (This is such a lovely, wholesome conversation with three men who took their roles at CIM that year incredibly seriously, and who had the utmost respect for the women in the field chasing their biggest goals. The women who ran with Menso, Chris, and Ken spoke so highly of them after the race, and I was delighted to get to interview all three of them together.)

On this episode of The Last Resort, host Christina Jelski talks with Fora-affiliated luxury travel advisors Jill Albino and Ronit Margolis about their recent stay at The Retreat at Blue Lagoon Iceland. Albino and Margolis break down what makes The Retreat worth its premium price tag, with Margolis going so far as to call the property “one of the top three hotels I’ve ever been to.” The two share details on the resort’s elevated Icelandic cuisine, afternoon tea experience, complimentary spa circuit and standout service. They also cover what clients should be prepared for before they go, from the lagoon’s no-wet-hair rule and drink limit to the very real possibility of a volcanic eruption. Plus, the pair weigh in on whether one night at The Retreat is really enough. Currently in its fourth season, The Last Resort is a monthly hospitality-focused podcast brought to you by Travel Weekly. In each episode, travel advisors share their first impressions of the last resort they visited. The 6th episode of the fourth season will be posted the last week of June.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for May 21, 2026 is: lacuna • luh-KOO-nuh • noun Lacuna is a formal word that refers to a gap or blank space in something—in other words, a missing part. When used with respect to biology, lacuna also refers to a small cavity, pit, or discontinuity in an anatomical structure. // The absence of hemlock pollen from one stretch of the fossil record is a notable lacuna that suggests the tree may have once suffered from some type of blight that nearly wiped out the species. // An osteocyte is a cell that is isolated in a lacuna of bone. See the entry > Examples: “At the heart of every biography ... lies a lacuna—something unknowable, no matter how candid or heavily documented the subject, no matter how familiar or diligent the biographer.” — Casey Cep, The New Yorker, 14 Apr. 2025 Did you know? If you find yourself drawing a blank when it comes to the definition of lacuna, it might help to imagine drawing water instead, ideally from a lake or lagoon. Lacuna, lake, and lagoon all come ultimately from lacus, the Latin word for “lake.” Latin speakers modified lacus into lacuna to form a word meaning “pit,” “gap,” or “pool.” When English speakers borrowed the term in the 17th century, they used it to refer to a figurative gap in or missing portion of something, such as information or text. (Note that lacuna comes with two plural options: the Latin lacunae luh-KYOO-nee or luh-KOO-nye, or the anglicized lacunas luh-KOO-nuz.) Lagoon, meanwhile, hewed closer to the Latin lacuna, referring first to a shallow sound, channel, or pond near or connected to a larger body of water, and later to a shallow artificial pool or pond.

Cue the comments section. We think this one is going to get a lot of attention - good and bad. It was a slower-news, running week, so there were a lot of angry runners arguing on social media about silly (?) things. Naturally, Des and Kara have to weigh in because many of you did already. But first (!)... Kara gives us a recap of Colt's amazing run in the 2-mile at state, after correcting the record on his 800m PR. His race at state was full of surges, but he finished higher than his seed in 14th and now is exciting to head to the Brooks PR meet. Meanwhile, Des is enjoying her time off from training but is now feeling the urge to get started again before this becomes a permanent break.  Then, they dig into the drama with reactions about the Satisfy Running debate, where many people (particularly in the trail world) are frustrated about how they are showing up in the sport. Satisfy is a new-ish running shoe and apparel brand. Their gear is really expensive, but should we be mad about it? As a fun side question on this debate, Kara was asked: "Is she sad that she missed the NIL era with her own college career?"  Next, they weigh in on the Cam Hanes vs. Sage Cannaday showdown on the socials. Sage turned Cam into USADA for openly admitting to using banned substances in his build-up to the Eugene Marathon (where he won his age group and placed 2nd Masters). Many people are mad at Sage on social media, defending Cam since there was no money or Team USA spot on the line. The Eugene Marathon, however, is a USATF-sanctioned event where there are rules against doping, amateur or not. What is the obligation of the amateur to follow anti-doping rules and do we want USADA or WADA worried about enforcement for the entire field? This topic is trickier than you think, when you dig into the nuance of it. What do you think?! Note: Kara mistakenly said Cam's time at Eugene was 2:37. He ran 2:39:11.  Finally along with a top 5, they get to the real crux of the episode. Are you a Minnesota or Irish goodbye person and when is the Irish goodbye ok?!? Plus... Des and Kara give a huge shout-out and some advice to listeners Nick and Avery on their upcoming wedding! Now, go pick up your pillow from Lagoon - the Otter or the "Thin"-Chilla (as Des dubbed it).

The Reddish Egret, a particularly glamorous heron, is best known for its startling antics in capturing fish. When fishing, the egret sprints across the lagoon, weaving left and right, simultaneously flicking its broad wings in and out, while stabbing into the water with its bill. Fish startled at the egret's crazed movements become targets of that pink dagger. At times, the bird will raise its wings forward over its head, creating a shadow on the water. It then freezes in this position for minutes. Fish swim in, attracted by a patch of shade and . . . well, you know the rest.

Andrew Colley joins me on the podcast after winning the USATF 25K Championships in Grand Rapids, Michigan, just six weeks after he and his wife Tristin welcomed their daughter Lily June into the world. We talk about balancing newborn life with training, racing at a high level while sleep deprived, and the excitement of finally seeing years of consistent work continue to pay off. Andrew is a 2:09 marathoner, a three-time Team USA World Cross Country representative, and a longtime member of the ZAP Endurance team under coach Pete Rea. We talk about his recent marathon PR in Seville, why he feels there's still a much bigger breakthrough coming, and what's changed in his approach to the marathon over the years. We also get into life after sponsorship changes, staying patient through the ups and downs of professional running, and what motivates him as both an athlete and now a new dad. Plus, because Tristin and Lily June came over too, this episode includes some laughs, baby snuggles, and a very real in-person conversation that felt more like hanging out than recording a podcast. Topics Discussed: Adjusting to life as new parents with baby Lily June Winning the 2026 USATF 25K Championships Racing Seville Marathon and feeling capable of a breakthrough Training consistency after years of injuries and setbacks Underfueling, body image struggles, and disordered eating in men's running Mental health, vulnerability, and pressures within professional running Training with NC State athletes and life in Raleigh Sponsorship uncertainty after ZAP Endurance and navigating the business side of pro running Olympic Trials goals and believing in yourself at the highest level Sobriety, addictive personality traits, and lessons from past mistakes The infamous cheesecake story at Club Cross Country Nationals Favorite recovery routines, TV shows, and fantasy books Advice for young runners about confidence and self-belief Books, TV Shows, & Media Mentioned: Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan Red Rising by Pierce Brown Brooklyn Nine-Nine Holiday Inn Support our sponsors: Lagoon Sleep — If you're ready to upgrade your sleep, Lagoon pillows are truly a game changer.

This week on SupaPod, we talk about the LEGO Sega Genesis set arriving June 1st, including the price, piece count, and why it's such a cool throwback for retro fans.We also break down the launch of the new Steam Controller, which is finally going on sale with surprisingly positive early reviews — though there are already discussions about compatibility limitations outside of Steam.We then dive into the messy situation surrounding Subnautica 2 and the drama between Krafton and Unknown Worlds Entertainment, including leadership firings, allegations from former staff, and claims involving a massive bonus tied to the game's success.Finally, we discuss new DRM-style check-in systems reportedly being added to some PC games by 2K and Sony, and what that could mean for players.

Ravenna is one of Italy's most quietly extraordinary cities – a place where the final centuries of the Roman world can still be read through intricate mosaics and imperial monuments.In this episode we are joined by Dr Eireann Marshall as she explores how this lagoon city rose to prominence, becoming first a Roman Imperial capital, then the seat of Ostrogothic power, and finally a key centre of the Byzantine world.At the heart of this story are not only Emperors and armies, but a remarkable group of women whose lives intersected with some of the most dramatic events of late antiquity.Academy Travel is a leading specialist in small-group cultural tours, allowing you to travel with like-minded companions and learn from internationally renowned experts. Like our podcast, our tours are designed to appeal to travellers with a strong interest in history, archaeology, architecture, the visual arts and the performing arts.Learn more here - https://academytravel.com.au/

It's been a crazy three weeks for Des and Kara, and now they are happy to be home and sleeping in their own beds with their Lagoon pillows.  In this episode, they recap all that was the London Marathon from their live pod with Cynthia Erivo to Des's run with CB to the blazing-fast elite races. Of course, they keep it real with their takes on the sub 2 and the women's only WR. Some of you (guys in particular) might not like their takes, but that's why we love them. They call it like they see it!  Plus, they share their perspectives on the shocking 2:05 race at the Glass City Marathon in Toledo, including the fun implications for the men's marathon trials in 2028.

"Doubt and belief can coexist. In the book, you see a ton of my doubts and struggles with confidence. But then there's also this untouchable belief that's always there, too. So it's almost like, which voice are you going to listen to?" It's a big week for professional runner Sara Hall! She turns 43 tomorrow, and then heads east to race the Boston Marathon on Monday. And while most marathoners are recovering on Tuesday, Sara, in true Sara form, will be doing the opposite: It's book launch day! Sara's debut memoir, For the Love of the Grind, comes out April 21, and in this conversation, Sara talks about why the time was right to write a book. She talks about what the writing process was like, about the part of the book that's likely to shock readers, and about why she wanted to get in touch with Eminem before the book came out. Plus, how she's feeling heading into Boston 2026.

Looking for daily inspiration?  Get a quote from the top leaders in the industry in your inbox every morning.   Marc Dixon is the managing director and co-founder USA of Study Academy USA. He got his start in the attractions industry in the mid-90s at Lagoon in Utah, then spent about two decades with Kodak in event imaging solutions before moving into other attraction tech businesses and, ultimately, e-learning. Today, Study Academy USA partners with organizations like IAAPA to build learning management systems and convert proven training content into trackable, scalable online courses for attractions. In this interview, Marc talks about technology in attractions, AI's purpose in the industry, and learning to take risks. Technology in attractions “We get to provide smiles and great experiences and memories.” Marc frames attraction technology as a means to capture, enhance, and scale what guests come for in the first place. He walks through the evolution of on-ride and experiential photography, from analog systems to digital, and from green screens to background removal and image enhancement. Even with smartphones everywhere, he argues the souvenir imaging business hasn't disappeared because guests still want content they cannot create themselves, especially on rides and in curated photo moments. He also connects that same “tech serves the experience” mindset to his current work with Study Academy USA. By building modern LMS tools and e-learning content for attraction operators and associations, the goal is to give attractions another practical way to train at scale while still supporting the on-the-job behaviors that make guest experiences great. AI's purpose in the industry “I've heard the statement that AI is not going to replace your job, but people using AI will.” Marc's view is that AI should primarily enhance work, not replace it outright. In imaging, he points to AI-driven improvements like background replacement and photo cleanup that reduce friction and raise quality, even when small mistakes happen in capture. In training, he sees AI as a way to make learning data more useful by pulling insights from LMS results and highlighting where teams are struggling, so leaders can coach more precisely. He's also clear about responsible use. Marc says he would never copy and paste AI output without reviewing it because it still needs to reflect his voice and intent. His biggest concern is people trusting AI blindly instead of treating it as a tool that speeds up work while still requiring human judgment. Learning to take risks “Learn to take risks, man, go for it. If there's something you're really passionate about and you want to try, what's the worst that can happen?” When Marc describes choosing entrepreneurship over a comfortable corporate role, he makes it clear that the risk is real and not always glamorous. There are good days and bad days, and some paths do not work out the way you expect. But he emphasizes persistence and adaptability, saying the wins come from believing it will work and being willing to pivot until you find the path that does. His advice to younger professionals is direct: take the risk, try the thing, and treat missteps as learning opportunities rather than permanent failures. That mindset, he says, is what keeps founders moving forward when uncertainty shows up.   Marc can be reached on LinkedIn, as well as by email at marc@studyacademyusa.com.

BGMania B-Sides #45 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bedroth dives into Lagoon, the early action RPG that made its way from the X68000 to the SNES, bringing with it a distinctly moody, almost off-kilter take on fantasy adventure. It's a game remembered as much for its quirks as its ambition, with a slower, more deliberate pace that gives the world a slightly distant, dreamlike feel. Lagoon's music leans into that atmosphere, built on gentle synth layers and melodies that feel patient rather than urgent. Themes unfold gradually, giving each track room to breathe while still carrying a quiet sense of forward motion. Email the show at bgmaniapodcast@gmail.com with requests for upcoming episodes, questions, feedback, comments, concerns, or any other thoughts you'd like to share!

Today on the podcast, I'm talking with Erin Ton. Erin is a professional mountain runner and endurance athlete who has built a remarkable life around chasing fastest known times all over the world. She has close to 200 FKTs to her name, with efforts that range from all-out sub-hour mountain pushes to 24-plus hour and multi-day adventures. In this conversation, Erin shares what draws her to this style of running and why she is so inspired by self-supported and unsupported efforts in the mountains. We talk about the beauty and challenge of moving through remote places alone, what it takes to prepare for these routes, and how she approaches safety, fear, and decision-making in extreme environments. Erin also reflects on a recent trip to South America, where she set the short-course women's speed record on Aconcagua, the highest peak in South America. She talks about the emotional side of these big efforts too, including what it feels like when an attempt does not go to plan, why some unfinished goals still keep calling her back, and how she has learned to sit with both success and failure. This episode is a little different from the track, road, and marathon conversations I often have on the show, and that is exactly why I loved it. Erin's story is full of adventure, perspective, and a deep love for wild places. I think you are going to really enjoy getting to know her. Topics Discussed: What fastest known times are and the difference between supported, self-supported, and unsupported efforts Why Erin is drawn to self-supported and unsupported mountain efforts Her recent South America trip and setting the short-course women's speed record on Aconcagua The difference between the short and long Aconcagua records How she trains for very different kinds of FKTs, from short mountain efforts to 24-plus hour and multi-day routes Strength training, nutrition, sleep, and the more structured side of her preparation Wilderness safety, gear, and learning to move safely in big mountain environments Managing fear and using visualization before committing to dangerous terrain Beautiful places she recommends, including the Atacama Desert in Chile and the Khumbu Valley in Nepal Living out of a van and what that lifestyle looks like in practice Her unfinished pursuit of Nolan's and what repeated attempts have taught her Why she is more drawn to adventure-style mountain efforts than traditional racing Growing up in Colorado and how leaving home made her appreciate the mountains more The law school path she once imagined and how running became both an outlet and a calling The bigger goals she has for the future, including chasing women's speed records on the Seven Summits Her encouragement to get outside, explore, and experience more of the world Book recommendations: A Sand County Almanac Support our Sponsors: Lagoon Sleep — If you're ready to upgrade your sleep, Lagoon pillows are truly a game changer.

Cue the latest running controversy because it had been a few weeks.  But first (!), Kara and Des update you on their lives including the latest race from Colt, and of course, Des's final preparation for Marathon des Sables. She will soon be running self-supported across the Sahara desert. In fact, she lands in Morocco on the very day this episode posts. Go Des... we are ALL cheering for you! Then if you missed it, Emma Bates posted on IG about getting "dropped" by UCAN (her nutrition sponsor) because of her pregnancy. Naturally, the world came to her defense, and now Emma is sharing more of her story on Ali Feller's podcast. Kara is no stranger to this issue, so she and Des dig into it, raising some good questions on the topic as well as a host of related ones. The short answer is... it's complicated, as many things are for athletes that are contractors and not in-house employees. Overall though, more rights and support for pregnant athletes is needed, and Alysia Montaño and Allyson Felix are leading the way. If you want to help, then put your time, energy, and money behind their work! Finally, we want to thank Lagoon for supporting the podcast (as well as Emma Bates even through her pregnancy)!

I sat down live in Napa Valley with Shannon Rowbury and Jessica Dorrington, co-authors of the new book Strong as a Mother. We recorded this conversation at the Napa Valley Marathon expo, and it centers on what it looks like to return to running after pregnancy, rebuild after injury, and support athletes through every stage of motherhood and performance. Shannon is a three-time Olympian and Olympic bronze medalist in the 1500 meters. Her medal came years after the 2012 Olympic final, when multiple athletes ahead of her were later disqualified for doping. In this conversation, she reflects on that experience and the complicated reality of receiving an Olympic medal long after the race is over. Jessica Dorrington is a board-certified orthopedic clinical specialist and pelvic health physical therapist who works with many elite runners. She shares practical, grounded insight on postpartum recovery, pelvic health, and how athletes can safely return to running after pregnancy or injury. Together, Shannon and Jess talk about the inspiration behind Strong as a Mother, why better education around postpartum recovery is so needed in sport, and how runners can approach their comeback with patience, perspective, and the right support. We also talk about Shannon's career, the emotional complexity of elite competition, and the importance of understanding the body through every phase of life. This episode is part of my weekend at the Napa Valley Marathon, where I had the chance to serve as race emcee and host conversations with athletes and leaders in the running community. Topics covered: Longevity in running and what helps you keep running for decades Why consistency matters more than any one perfect week of training Recovery as a key part of performance How training needs change as you age Strength training, calf strength, plyometrics, and core work for runners Injury setbacks and using them as opportunities to learn more about your body Shannon Rowbury's femoral neck stress fracture in college and comeback to make her first Olympic team The role of biomechanics, leg length differences, orthotics, and maintenance work in staying healthy Postpartum return to running and why timelines are highly individual What happens to the abdominal wall and pelvic floor during pregnancy and postpartum Why more women are returning to elite running after having babies The lack of pregnancy and postpartum resources for athletes and why Strong as a Mother was written Pelvic floor health for runners and why it matters for both women and men Shannon Rowbury's delayed Olympic bronze medal from the 2012 1500m Doping in sport and the emotional impact of delayed justice The importance of clean sport, reform, and fighting for integrity in athletics Mental preparation for racing, including visualization, positive cue words, breathing, and smiling Race-day strategies for handling hills, fueling, and staying mentally engaged late in the race Why menstruation is an important indicator of athlete health Low energy availability, RED-S, sleep, and early warning signs for high school and young female runners Sign up for the Marathon Project!

Megan Sailor joins the show fresh off a huge breakthrough at CIM, where she placed third in the national championship marathon and ran 2:25:17 in her debut. Megan runs for the B.A.A. High Performance Team and she walks through what it looked like to finally step up to the marathon after spending years focused on the track and shorter road races. Megan shares how pro running was not always the plan, why she considers herself more of a realist than a dreamer, and how the marathon move came at the right time after a stretch where training fitness was not translating to race results. We talk about learning to stop racing workouts, what changed when she began moving up in distance, and how a strong half marathon helped confirm she was heading the right direction. We also get into life outside racing, including the unique dynamic of being a twin and having a built-in training partner, the fact that Megan and her husband live with her twin sister and her husband in Boston, and what they actually do to unwind when they are not training. Megan wraps with a message that sticks: you do not always get to choose the timing or even the event, but patience and trust can lead to the breakthrough you were hoping for. Enjoy this episode with Megan! Topics Discussed: Megan's 2:25:17 marathon debut and 3rd at CIM (national championship) Joining and training with the B.A.A. High Performance Team Why the track was not clicking, and the shift away from racing workouts Building from half marathon success to marathon readiness Marathon training changes: mileage bump, longer workout volume, solo long runs CIM race strategy, pack decisions, and the late-race leg shutdown Fueling and bottle-grab chaos, plus her gel preferences Boston Marathon build: hills, strength on tired legs, and racing a stacked field Twin sister training dynamic, competitiveness, and support Boston winter stories and “space savers” street parking culture Life outside running: TV binges, baking, books, and future goals (dogs, international racing) Closing takeaway: patience, timing, and letting the right event find you Media Mentioned: Books Throne of Glass (series) Shield of Sparrows Harry Potter (series) Divergent (series) The Hunger Games (series) Twilight (series) ACOTAR TV shows Survivor Grey's Anatomy Schitt's Creek Love Is Blind Sponsors: Lagoon Sleep — If you're ready to upgrade your sleep, Lagoon pillows are truly a game changer.

Watch out, ultra world: Molly Seidel has arrived! The Olympic bronze medalist has officially moved from the marathon to the mountains. Molly just completed the Black Canyon 100K, where she finished fourth and earned a golden ticket entry to this summer's 100-mile Western States Endurance Run.

The Olympics are over and Des and Kara are going through withdrawal like so many of you. Fortunately, we have some fun running news to keep us occupied and to ease the pain... After the usual life updates, they dig into the new 800m, indoor world record, set by Keely Hodgkinson from Great Britain. She faced some injuries last summer which meant only a bronze medal at the World Champs in Tokyo. Now, she is healthy, already blazing the indoor oval, and her splits indicate that there might be even more in the tank. Des and Kara break it all down. Then, they introduce you to the 6th fastest US marathoner ever, who no one had ever heard of him until this past weekend. Meet Ethan Shuley, a 27-year-old American from Kentucky who lives and trains in Tokyo. He just threw down a 2:07 in Japan with no sponsor after steady gains over the last 18 months. Who is Ethan? What does this mean? How was it possible? And what are the implications for the US Marathon Trials for LA? Finally, they give you their top Olympics moments as the Games have wrapped, while also explaining the mixed emotions of watching the Closing Ceremonies as a competitor. If you think two weeks flies by as a spectator, imagine what it is like as an athlete! Now for your best night sleep, get you a Lagoon pillow.

"Sometimes you've just gotta be a little bit fearless." The last time Roisin Willis was on the Ali on the Run Show, the "fastest high schooler in American history" at the time was fresh off earning a gold medal in the 800m at the USA Track and Field U20 Outdoor Championships, and was headed to Stanford University. (Listen to that episode here.) Now, the middle-distance runner is wrapping up her time at Stanford — and she's gone pro! The two-time NCAA 800m champion opted to forgo her remaining NCAA eligibility in favor of signing a professional contract with New Balance, and she just made her pro racing debut with a stellar indoor season. In this conversation, Roisin talks about racing at New Balance Indoor Grand Prix (she ran and won the 800m), at Boston University (she ran 1:57.97, becoming the first American woman to break 1:58 indoors, and breaking the American record in the event), and at the Millrose Games (she won the 600m). She also talks about her struggles with mental health during her time at Stanford, and about the tools that helped her through the hardest days. Plus, a peek at what's next. (First: midterms!)
