To say that New Balance athlete Emily Sisson is on the come up would be a major understatement. Recently, the 29-year-old snagged a shiny new half-marathon personal best of 67:26 at the Valencia Half, falling one single second short of the American record. For episode 142, we chat about how she got so speedy, starting with her upbringing as a multisport athlete leading her to a strong collegiate running career at Providence. Emily shares with me how inspired she is by good friend, mentor, and training partner Molly Huddle, and gets really honest about how she felt after her performance at the U.S. Olympic marathon trials earlier this year. We also swap virtual racing stories, she shares some of the biggest takeaways she has from working with a sports psychologist, and offers up how she keeps her mind right when injuries happen.
