Fighting Illini: Mia Townes- Have more conversations

I am so honored to have our first current student athlete on the podcast in Fighting Illini Gymnast Mia Townes. Mia is from Austin Texas and is a grad student and Gymnast at The University of Illinois Champagne.

In these episodes we dive into the gymnast as people, their process to getting to the school they currently are at, their purpose, and the experiences of being a student athlete as said University/college.

Mia talked about her club gym, her college team, and her setback due to injury and also gave some advice to both current collegiate student-athletes and future student-athletes to consider.

Thanks for tuning in.
