#241 - Jordan Mann and Save Brown Track The Rambling Runner Podcast

    • Running

Jordan Mann is one of the best middle distance runners in the country with a top five USATF Championship finish in the steeplechase and a 3:39 1500m to his name. He is also one of American running's most unique and eclectic voices. In this episode, we begin with Jordan's heart felt opinions on Brown University's decision to cut men's varsity cross country, track, and field. As a Brown alum, and someone who is still plugged into the University through his work at Hillel and his connection to those teams, Jordan is doing all he can to bring awareness of this situation.

In the second half of the episode, Jordan details his rise from lightly recruited high school athlete, and college walk-on, to the upper echelon of the sport. He also takes a deep to dive into his wide ranging interests and his legendary post-race interviews. Finally, Jordan discusses his work with students of color and Jewish students through role at the Brown and Rhode Island School of Design Hillel.
