    Ep. 107 - Inside The Lives Of The Fastest Twins In Oregon: Chloe and Hannah Huyler

    Today on the podcast, I had an awesome conversation with Chloe and Hannah Huyler. Chloe and Hannah are twin sisters that are seniors at Lakeridge High School in Oregon. Both Hannah and Chloe are committed to run at D1 schools next year, with Hannah running at Vanderbilt and Chloe running at Notre Dame. Chloe recently won the NXR Northwest Girls Championship race and if I am getting the dates right, they will both be racing on December 7th, with Chloe racing at NXN and Hannah racing at Footlocker Nationals. What’s crazy about their journeys is that Chloe and Hannah started doing cross country just last year and since then, they have become some of the top runners not only in Oregon, but also in the Pacific Northwest and only time will tell if they can stand on the podium at Nationals. Today, we talk all about their experiences at NXR and how Chloe made up a 10 second deficit in the final k from Sophia Rodriguez in order to take the win in the last 200. We also talk about their relationship in the sport of running and how much it has helped their journeys, why they chose Notre Dame and Vanderbilt, how they envision the future of their respective running careers, and much more.

He reviews running shoes and all of his races and training for 5Ks, 10Ks, half, and full marathons. YouTube is one of the places where I found true passion and motivation to start running seriously, and so channels like his and many others hit home for me. Andy is a very analytical person in the way that he approaches the training and racing process and his deliberate approach has brought him success. He started running in his 20s a little less than 10 years ago, and he holds PR’s of 2:40 in the marathon, 1:13 in the half marathon, 33 minutes for 10K, and 16:05 for 5K. He does all of this while doing a full-time job, having a family, and running an incredible YouTube channel. Andy’s incredible and infectious passion for the sport shines through in my conversation with him today. This conversation is really for anyone who wants to dive into the world of marathoning, and just enjoy a very insightful conversation between two committed people in the sport of running. Andy and I talk all about his 9 and half kilometer race that he did earlier today, mindset and overcoming adversity, his journey from being a soccer player to committed to the sport, why it’s important to control the controllables, and much more.

  7. Ep. 105 - "Bigger Than The Moment": The Chase For The 3-Peat | SPXC Washington State Meet Review 2024

    Ep. 105 - "Bigger Than The Moment": The Chase For The 3-Peat | SPXC Washington State Meet Review 2024

    Yesterday was an attempt at a 3-peat. Seattle Prep XC Boys Team was attempting to be one of the few teams in Washington XC 3A state history to win back-to-back-to-back state titles. The favorites going into today were the boys from Mercer Island High School. In our minds, however, we were the favorite. Today, I review a very disappointing and emotional loss at the State meet that we faced. This includes my whole experience from Monday-Saturday of this past week, the trip itself, and some of the lessons that we are using moving forward. The phrase we said to each other was "you are bigger than the moment". But sometimes, it doesn’t go the way you planned. Legs feel heavy, the gaps start to form, and all the expectations we carried on our shoulders start to weigh us down. The finish line came, but the result—well, it wasn’t what we had fought for. Not this time. That’s when the phrase truly matters. Because it’s not just something you say when things are going your way. It’s a belief, a mindset, a call to rise above, especially when you fall short. It’s about understanding that when everything comes down to one race, one chance, one defining instant, you are not defined by that moment. Yes, we stumbled, and yes, we felt the sting of disappointment. But those moments don’t take away the months of grinding workouts in the rain, the countless miles logged in the early morning darkness, or the brotherhood forged through shared struggle. All the work, all the pain, all the sacrifice—that’s what defines you. The moment doesn’t make you; you make the moment And this moment, while a failure, is only a short chapter in our book on SPXC. We still have a lot more book to write.

Manny is a senior in Wisconsin who just yesterday won his third consecutive state title, becoming only the third person in his division to three-peat in the history of Wisconsin State Cross Country History.

Today, Manny and I talk all about the experience and emotions of winning back-to-back-to-back state titles, his thoughts on how to effectively run hills in cross country, being one of the favorites going into NXN this year, why he thinks high school rankings are a double-edged sword, and much more.
