"I do want to be the greatest to ever do it in our sport. And I mean that wholeheartedly. I genuinely feel like it's something that I can do, and something I've been called to do. In due time it is going to happen. But it is going to start with me taking it one day, one practice, one meet at a time." Melissa Jefferson-Wooden has had the year of her dreams. At this year's World Championships in Tokyo, Melissa became the first American in history to win triple gold, winning the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m relay. She became the first American woman since Allyson Felix in 2009 to win the 200m at World Championships, and became the first American woman in history to win the 100/200 double at World Championships. Melissa went undefeated in the 100m this entire season, winning Diamond Leagues, Grand Slam Track meets, and, of course, World Champs. Last year, Melissa made her Olympic debut in Paris, where she won bronze in the 100m and gold in the 4x100m relay. In this conversation, Melissa talks about what life is like for the fastest woman in the world.

With 16 Drivers' and Constructors' World Championships combined, Williams are the third most successful team in Formula 1 history – behind Ferrari and McLaren. But they haven't won a title since 1997 and it's 13 years since they last won a race, so Team Principal James Vowles is on a mission to bring the glory days back to Williams. In 2025, the team have taken big steps towards success. Carlos Sainz secured the team's first podium in four years when he finished third in Baku, and they've amassed their highest points total since 2016. Speaking to Tom Clarkson, James reveals what he and Carlos spoke about over dinner before that sensational podium, why that result means so much to the whole team, and the reasons Carlos had endured a frustrating season up to that point. On the other side of the garage, James shares what he thinks is different about Alex Albon this year and how he's risen to the challenge of having a much more experienced and competitive teammate. And while Williams have performed better than expected in 2025 with such a strong driver line-up, their main focus is 2026. So what opportunities will the new era of Formula 1 bring them? Given James's first-hand experience of the intense championship battles between Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg at Mercedes, what would his approach be if Alex and Carlos are fighting for a title in the coming years?

What if the communication skills holding back your business growth aren't what you think they are? Most service business executives invest heavily in presentation training and public speaking courses, only to sound more robotic and less persuasive than before. Tristan, a World Championship of Public Speaking finalist, reveals why traditional communication training focuses on the wrong symptoms entirely—and shares the counterintuitive systems that help leaders show up authentically in high-stakes client meetings and team presentations. From his revolutionary "accordion method" that eliminates the need for notes or memorization, to the 2-minute exercises that outperform weekend workshops, this conversation exposes the hidden methodology behind truly powerful business communication. Why Your Communication Training Is Making You Worse (Not Better) Most executives invest in presentation skills, public speaking courses, and communication workshops—only to sound more robotic than before. Tristan reveals why traditional training focuses on the wrong things entirely. Instead of fixing external symptoms, there's a deeper root cause that transforms how you show up in client meetings, team presentations, and high-stakes conversations. The Authenticity Paradox: How "Being Yourself" Became Bad Business Advice Everyone tells you to "be authentic," but what does that actually mean when you're presenting to a potential million-dollar client? Tristan breaks down the difference between authentic communication and performative communication—and why most business leaders are unknowingly choosing the path that repels rather than attracts. From World Championship Finalist to Business System: The Feedback Loop That Changes Everything Tristan didn't just reach the World Championship of Public Speaking by accident. He cracked the code on constant iteration and feedback that most people are too uncomfortable to pursue. This same methodology became the foundation of Ultraspeaking's approach—and it's why their clients see dramatic improvements in weeks, not years. The Short Exercise Revolution: Why 2-Minute Drills Beat 2-Hour Workshops Forget lengthy training programs and weekend seminars. Tristan's breakthrough discovery involves short, feedback-driven speaking exercises that build fundamental skills faster than traditional methods. The secret isn't in the length of practice—it's in the intensity and frequency of specific types of challenges. The Accordion Method: How to Never Use Notes Again (Without Memorizing Anything) What if you could deliver compelling presentations without slides, notes, or memorization? Tristan's "accordion method" involves a counterintuitive approach of progressively shortening and lengthening your speaking time. This forces something most business leaders never achieve: true clarity of thought and complete internalization of your message. Ready to discover why the best communicators in business aren't naturally gifted—they just know different systems? This conversation reveals the methodology behind authentic, powerful communication that drives real business results. Learn more about Tristan de Montebello over at Ultra Speaking. You can get the Ultra Speaking Playbook to build your speaking skills today. You can also connect with him on LinkedIn. You can get the Magnetic Systems Method (and other systems guides) to find issues before they become expensive problems As always, if you have any questions or want to submit an amazing guest for the podcast, just reach out to me on the Systematic Leader website, and I'll do my best to get them on.

Airey Bros Radio Episode 399. We sit down with Coach Chris Beene, Head Men's and Women's Cross Country and Track & Field Coach at Odessa College. Beene is one of the most decorated coaches in NJCAA history, leading South Plains College to 32 national team championships, earning 14 National Coach of the Year and 25 Coach of the Meet honors, and coaching more than 20 Olympians and World Championship athletes, 50-plus national champions, and 150-plus All-Americans. He was inducted into the NJCAA Coaches Hall of Fame in 2021 and the Texas Track & Field Coaches Hall of Fame in 2024. In 2024–25 he received four NJCAA Legacy Awards, the only JUCO coach to do so.We cover his coaching philosophy, recruiting approach, academic standards, rebuilding Odessa into a national contender, international athlete development, double-threshold training and distance strategy, and how West Texas culture shapes tough, successful programs.FollowAirey Bros Radio:YouTube: @AireyBrosSpotify: Airey Bros RadioInstagram: @aireybrosradioFueled by: Black Sheep Endurance CoachingSupport the show: buymeacoffee.com/aireybrosShow Notes and Timestamps0:00 Intro and show open1:15 Coach Beene joins; Hall of Fame legacy and Odessa vision3:00 The JUCO mission and why community college athletics matter4:45 From South Plains to Odessa; rebuilding a winner8:00 Why JUCO is his favorite level to coach10:00 Myths about junior college coaching12:00 Odessa early rise; top women and men preseason rankings14:00 Global recruiting pipeline; Jamaica, Africa, and Texas roots17:00 What makes a great recruiter and how parents factor in19:00 Academics first; discipline, study halls, and accountability23:00 Why Odessa College support systems are elite25:00 International athletes adapting to climate, food, and culture28:00 West Texas hospitality and community33:00 Recruiting in 2025; relationships over hype35:00 Family balance, time management, and staff roles37:00 Mentoring moments; the hurdles story and athlete buy-in40:00 Evolving as a coach; standards, discipline, and growth43:00 Distance training; double-threshold, mileage, and VDOT46:00 Olympians and world championship athletes developed under Beene49:00 Academic excellence and GPA standards at Odessa52:00 Key meets; OSU Jamboree, Regionals, Nationals in Iowa55:00 Half marathon strategy and the quest to win all eight titles57:00 Building a full track program at Odessa; next steps62:00 Mentors, rivals, and respect across JUCO track and field64:00 Texas roots, Von Erichs, and wrestling ties66:00 Coaching mantras; love the process and habit over desire70:00 The person behind the coach; family, movies, and Dr Pepper77:00 Closing thoughts; Odessa's next chapter
“The one thing I reminded myself of and something my coach has been telling me all year is this: Don't feel like you have to be anybody else. What you've been doing has been working for you. Continue to do that. If you've been being Melissa all year and you've been winning all year, what else do you need to do? Just go out there and be yourself.”My guest for today's episode is Melissa Jefferson-Wooden — the 25-year-old from Georgetown, South Carolina who just pulled off one of the rarest feats in track and field: the golden sprint triple crown.At the World Championships in Tokyo, Melissa won the 100, the 200, and was part of the Team USA team that took gold in the 4x100m relay — becoming the first American woman ever, and only the second woman in history after Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, to sweep the sprints at a single Worlds.Her winning times — 10.61 in the 100m and 21.68 in the 200m — weren't just dominant; they cemented her as the fourth-fastest woman of all time and within striking distance of Flo-Jo's world record.But what makes Melissa's story so special isn't just the speed. It's also the journey.If you've followed some of her career leading into 2025, she calls herself a self-described ‘village kid' who had two partial college offers. She saved her dad's life at 17 years old with a bone marrow transplant. She built herself from an NCAA champion out of Coastal Carolina to a global superstar, who can boast the title of the fastest woman on earth.In this episode, we talk about that rise, the lessons that come with greatness all throughout 2025 from her races in April through September, and how she's thinking about being one of the faces of the sport.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Melissa Jefferson-Wooden | @__melissaj19 on Instagram Produced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr on Instagram____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSHOKA: We're takin' over Happy Camper Chicago (Old Town) with HOKA during the Chicago Marathon festivities.

The NZ Ice Figure Skating championships are taking place in Auckland in today. For many of the contestants it's a fun hobby, but for others the stakes are higher. Winning the senior category here could mean a shot at qualifying for next year's World Championships. One of the women vying for that spot is Petra Lahti originally born in Tauranga, now based in Finland.
What do Sepp Kuss, Christopher Blevins, Howard Grotts, and Asa Vermette have in common? They all grew up in the small town of Durango, Colorado. The list of cycling pros that now live there is formidable, and includes our guest, 3x Olympian and 15x XC and CX National Champion Todd Wells. Last week, it was announced that Durango would host the 2030 mountain bike World Championships, 40 years after hosting the very first edition in 1990.Todd sat down with Payson to talk about how he and a group of others helped win Durango the coveted event, the logistics that went into their bid, and what he hopes it will bring to the town. He also talks about the impact that the first World Champs had on Durango, and all the hats he now wears in his post-professional cycling career.

In this powerful episode, Kara sits down with Acacia Walker, one of the most accomplished coaches in women's lacrosse and the head coach of Team USA. Acacia shares the secret sauce behind building championship teams—from taking Boston College from never winning a national title to securing two championships and becoming the winningest program since 2017. This conversation is packed with leadership lessons, culture-building strategies, and mindset practices that apply far beyond the field. Acacia opens up about the power of unselfishness, the art of hard conversations, and how visualization shapes performance. She also shares her journey to becoming Team USA's head coach and how she balances coaching 40 athletes with raising three kids. Whether you're a leader, athlete, coach, or parent, this episode will inspire you to elevate your game in every area of life.Episode Topics:Building a Championship Culture: How Acacia transformed Boston College lacrosse from underdog to two-time national champion through culture over talentThe Power of Unselfishness: Why putting the team before personal goals creates unstoppable momentumLeadership & Hard Conversations: The importance of tackling difficult conversations instead of sweeping issues under the rugTeam USA Journey: The moment Acacia got the call to lead the U.S. Women's National Lacrosse Team to the 2026 World Championship in JapanVisualization & Mental Training: How mental rehearsal can be more powerful than physical practiceBalancing Work & Family: Merging two worlds—coaching 40 athletes while raising three kids with family supportThe Role of Mentorship: How legendary coach Cindy Timshaw shaped Acacia's coaching philosophy and approachHighlights:00:00 Building Championship Team Culture 05:41 Building Team Culture in Coaching 10:35 Building Team Culture and Unselfishness 15:27 Team Culture and Communication 19:08 Team USA Coaching Journey 23:56 Visualization and Mental Training 28:44 Balancing Family and Coaching 31:20 Team USA Follow-Up 32:32 Podcast episode ended Insights:Culture beats talent in tight games. When it's tied and a championship is on the line, the team with stronger culture and deeper connections wins.The "you before me" mentality creates exponential returns. When 30 players all focus on empowering each other, everyone gets elevated simultaneously.The in-between moments reveal true character. Great coaches pay attention to how athletes treat each other on the sidelines, after wins, after losses, and when no one's watching.Mental reps are as powerful as physical reps. Visualization done properly from a calm state creates neural pathways that translate to real performance.You can't build culture alone—your staff must embody it first. Everything trickles down from leadership, so alignment at the top is essential.Hard conversations are skills that require practice. Avoiding conflict weakens teams; diving in, breaking it down, and working through it strengthens bonds.Redemption can be a powerful motivator. Acacia's drive to win stemmed partly from not winning a championship while playing under her mentor at Maryland.Resources:Follow Team USA Lacrosse: Instagram @USALacrosseFollow Boston College Women's Lacrosse: Instagram @BCLacrosseJerry Lynch: Sports psychologist who works with...
“You almost need to just have this fearlessness towards it. You can absolutely look at what each of the athletes have done and put them up on a pedestal, but you almost have to be like, ‘They've done that, but I'm going to try and do this today.'”My guest for today's episode is Jessica Hull, who just earned her second straight global medal with a bronze in the 1500m at the World Championships in Tokyo. Hull went toe-to-toe with the greatest of all time, Faith Kipyegon, hanging on until the final 200 meters before battling all the way to the line to secure her spot on the podium.Last year was obviously a dream season for Jess — an Olympic silver medal, a 2000m world record, a 3:50 personal best. This year, she didn't always hit the same highs, but she raced with consistency, courage, and adaptability, proving she's a contender in every scenario. In Tokyo, she left it all out there, fending off a charging Nelly Chepchirchir to hang on for bronze in 3:55.16. A repeat of the disastrous tie-up that happened in the Diamond League final was avoided.In this episode, we talk about how she leveled up to get to this point, we talk about the bond shared between all of the 1500m women and the reverence and respect for Faith Kipygeon, her exploration of the 800m which saw her break the Australian record in 1:57.15 in the semifinals and then reaching the final, where she ran another 1:57.Plus, you'll learn where some of her early thoughts are on her plans for 2026.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Jessica Hull | @jessicaahull on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr on Instagram____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSHOKA: We're takin' over Happy Camper Chicago (Old Town) with HOKA during the Chicago Marathon festivities.

Send us a textWhat if the best prep for a world-stage 50K isn't altitude at all—but rock, root, and relentless decision-making? That's the case Ben Robinson makes as we dive into his Grindstone 50K win, an OCC qualifier that doubled as redemption after a brutal DNF during a rabies vaccine saga the year before. From Pennsylvania's Roxylvania series to Alaska's Mount Marathon chaos, Ben maps a season where the Northeast's technical terrain becomes a training edge, not a compromise, and where joy beats pressure as a performance tool.We trace Ben's arc from Lock Haven long runs to short-trail evangelist, race director, and community builder. He breaks down what makes PA special—Heiner's culture, Boulder Beast's car-sized rocks, and Miller Mountain's steep, clean design—then gets specific about permitting, landowner trust, and why a cookout can be the most important gear choice of race day. We go deep on Mount Marathon strategy (cliffs vs roots), how to commit on snowfields and scree without blinking, and why downhill skill is often the true separator. He explains the switch from pro-contract pressure to free agency freedom, how self-coaching lets him fit training around a full-time job and board roles, and how rebuilding his why—love of the sport, service to others, growth through difficulty—made him faster.We also zoom out. Cirque Series growth in the Northeast? Good for the sport when courses stay honest. UTMB structure vs the Olympics? Keep the edges sharp and the terrain real. World Championships takeaways? Technical venues reveal depth; surprise performances are a feature, not a bug. Ben's near-term path points to OCC, a Javelina 100 experiment, and a Skyrunner Series return, plus bucket-list aims like Transvulcania and Western States—not as résumé items but as pilgrimages worth the work.If you're into East Coast grit, skyrunning energy, and practical insight on training, race directing, and building a life that can hold it all, this one's for you.

Olympic figure skater Nicole Bobek has long been on our list of athletes to interview, and we're thrilled she's able to come on the show! In 1995, Nicole dazzled at the US Championships, winning gold and then taking bronze at the Figure Skating World Championships later that year. Her career on and off the ice has had a lot of highs and lows, from her beautiful performances to dealing with injuries and the sudden death of her coach Carlo Fassi at the 1997 World Championships where she was still competing. Nicole also represented the US at the Nagano 1998 Winter Olympics. Nicole has a new memoir out called The Wild One, in which she talks candidly about her skating career and her life afterward, which involved an arrest for being part of an alleged drug ring, for which she served five years of probation. Since then, Nicole has found her way back, and she embraces her role as a mother....and you can still find her free skating! Find out more about Nicole and her book The Wild One at her website: http://nicolebobek.com Follow Nicole on Insta! @nicolebobek77 In news from Milano Cortina 2026, we now know who will be the first torchbearers for the torch relay.

“A year ago, I just wanted to get on that team. The goals changed as the season went on. Things progressed and then it was like: you're sixth in the world and you're still hungry for more. That's a really encouraging spot to be in.”My guest for today's episode is Josette Andrews, who just finished sixth in the 5000m final at the World Championships in Tokyo, one of the best global finishes by an American woman ever in the event. Josette's run caps off a season that's been nothing short of STRONG.From making her first outdoor U.S. team in Eugene with a gutsy third-place finish, to racing Diamond Leagues in Brussels and Zurich, to standing on the line in Tokyo ready to take on the best in the world, she's tested herself all throughout and come away with impressive results each time.We've had Josette on the show multiple times in the past and it's always felt like she was on the cusp of a breakthrough on the global stage. This year she put it all together.

Final Surge: https://www.finalsurge.com (RUNNINGEFFECT20)Few coaches have reshaped a running program the way Laurie Henes has.For more than three decades, she's been at the heart of NC State running, first as a competitor, then as a builder of champions.As an athlete, Laurie was an eight-time All-American, the 1991 NCAA 5,000-meter champion, and later competed for the U.S. at the 1995 World Championships (10,000m).She had personal bests of 15:31 for 5,000 meters and 32:05 for 10,000 meters.She knows the grind of the sport firsthand: the glory of winning and the sting of just missing an Olympic team by two places at the 1996 Trials in the 10,000m.That perspective carried seamlessly into her coaching career.Since joining the Wolfpack staff in the early '90s, Laurie has shaped the program into a national powerhouse.She became the women's cross country head coach in 2006, and in 2019, she was elevated to head coach of women's track & field.Since summer 2023, she has served as Director of Track & Field and Cross Country.The results speak for themselves: under her leadership, NC State women's cross country teams captured three straight NCAA titles from 2021 through 2023.She's coached NCAA champions like her daughter Elly Henes and Katelyn Tuohy, as well as countless All-Americans.Tap into the Laurie Henes Special.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it.Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen.If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W N O T E SThe Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rsBUY MERCH BEFORE IT'S GONE: https://shop.therunningeffect.runOur Website: https://therunningeffect.runTHE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQMy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=enTake our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

The FISO OCR World Championships recently had their 3rd event weekend in Sweden this year and by all accounts it was the best one by far! This is admittely a low bar due to overflowing portopotties in Belgium and many obstacles not being built in Costa Rica, etc. However, by working alongside the Tough Viking crew they had plenty of experience to put on a proper word championship event! Two members of USAOCR, Vivien Tran and Kevin Thompson, wanted to come on the show to talk about their experience at the event, differences from previous years, and more.

World Championship | September 28, 2025 by The Lutheran Church of St. Andrew
“This is the moment I've been training three years for. There's been three years of a lot of hard work and hard times to get to this. This is the thing in my mind, that dream and goal that's kept me going. Once I put that into perspective, it was a lot easier to ride that wave of momentum into Worlds.”Our guest today is Angelina Napoleon — the 20-year-old NC State steeplechaser who just capped off a super impressive and long outdoor track season.In Tokyo, Angelina made her World Championships debut, ran 9:18 in the heats to advance, and then came back with a 9:17 in the final to finish ninth overall — and as the top American in the women's steeplechase. That finish crowns a year where she lowered her PB from the 9:50s all the way down to 9:10, finished third at NCAAs, and proved she belongs on the global stage.What stands out about Angelina isn't just the times, it's her perspective: she left Tokyo proud, grateful, and already hungry for more. She talked about staying calm in the chaos, adapting to challenges, and soaking up the love from her family and friends as she raced halfway across the world.Now, as she heads back to grass and cross country season, we're hoping this makes you a fan of her going forward.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Angelina Napoleon | @angelinanapoleon on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr on Instagram____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSASICS: The Megablast is the Mega Man of the Blast lineup.

“That's where I feel the most free: crossing the line. Running out on the track is one thing, but crossing the line doing what you set out to do with the stadium going crazy — I just want to live in that moment.” My guest for this episode is Olympic 1500m champion and now 5000m World champion Cole Hocker — fresh off one of the most thrilling redemption stories of these World Championships.Days after being disqualified in the 1500m semifinals, Cole still came back and left Tokyo with a gold medal. He went from 12th at the bell to first at the line, closing in a ridiculous 52.6 final lap and 25.5 last 200 to win in 12:58.30. With that kick, he joins Bernard Lagat and Bob Schul as the only American men ever to win a global title at 5000 meters, and he's now on the short list of legends who have captured gold in both the 1500 and the 5000 on the world stage.In this episode, we go through his whole World Championship experience. Cole talked a lot about wanting to end this championship on his own terms — and he did exactly that. Today, we dive into how he kept the faith through setbacks, how he found that gear when it mattered most, and what it means to cement his place among the greats.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Cole Hocker | @colehocker on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr on Instagram____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSASICS: The Megablast is the Mega Man of the Blast lineup.
