    Sadie Engelhardt Shares Exclusive Insights After Setting The National Record In The DMR & Running The Fastest Mile In High School History 4:31

    Today on "The Call Room: Road To Seattle" is National Record Holder Sadie Engelhardt! 



    Sadie recently took down the high school national outdoor mile national record at the 64th Annual Mt. SAC Relays, running her way to a new best of 4:31.72! If you've listened to my podcasts with Sadie in the past, you know this result has been a long time in the making.



    Sadie has been on fire all year as she also won the 2024 New Balance National Indoor Mile title by running a meet record of 4:36.36.



    She holds PRs of 2:05.66 (800m), 2:41 (1k), 4:11.79 (1500m), 4:31.72 (Mile), and 9:50.69 (3200m). She was the California Girls Gatorade player of the year for both Track and XC, won the 800/1600 double at her state meet in California, and is 3xNew Balance National Championship Mile winner. 



    Sadie is committed to run for NC State in 2025 after she graduates high school. 



    Sadie has run at the Brooks PR meet every year of high school thus far. She's entered into the Mile, where she'll look to win her first golden spike.



    In today's conversation, Sadie takes me through her recent National Records both in the Mile & DMR, winning a Pro 1500m race, her ambitions for the 2024 Brooks PR Meet, her experience at past PR meets, and much more!

    Parker Wolfe Speaks After Placing 2nd In the 3k/5k Indoors, Setting A New Standard In The NCAA, & What It's Going To Take To Win His First NCAA Title

    Parker Wolfe Speaks After Placing 2nd In the 3k/5k Indoors, Setting A New Standard In The NCAA, & What It's Going To Take To Win His First NCAA Title

    Back on the podcast is NCAA stud Parker Wolfe!



    Since I last talked with Parker in September, he placed 9th at the 2023 NCAA XC National Championships, set a bunch of new PRs, and placed 2nd in both the 5k and 3k at the 2024 NCAA Indoor National Championships. 



    In addition to these recent accomplishments, Parker was first-team All-America status in three sports during the 2022-23 academic year: cross country, indoor track & field, and outdoor track & field. He holds records, such as setting a school record and an American Junior Record (U-20) in the 5,000 meters. In the 2022 NCAA Indoor Championships, he secured fifth place in the 5,000 meters, earning first-team All-America honors once more. He also gained first-team All-America accolades for the third time in the 2022-23 academic year, excelling in the outdoor 5000m event. In cross country, Parker's accomplishments are equally impressive, being named the 2022 ACC Men's Cross Country Athlete of the Year and earning All-America honors.



    In today's conversation, Parker takes me through all of his recent success, what has gone into it, his vision for the coming months, why he hasn't signed an NIL deal, his thoughts on a draft coming to running, if Nico Young can be beat, and much more!



    I always thoroughly enjoy my conversations with Parker and walk away feeling inspired.

    Running Across The United States In 52 Days (59 Miles A Day): The Remarkable Story Of Paul Johnson

    Running Across The United States In 52 Days (59 Miles A Day): The Remarkable Story Of Paul Johnson

    Less than 400 people have ever completed the Transcontinental Run across the United States. 



    Recently, Paul Johnson became one of those people, and one of the fastest to ever do it, completing the trek in 52 days and averaging 59 miles a day (yes, you read that right.)



    Paul is passionate about inspiring others to get up, engage in physical activity, and find their own positive outlets. Paul discovered that military and veteran communities are particularly prone to struggles with mental health due to the nature of everything they do and experience, and because of this, Paul dedicated this trans con run to Team Red White & Blue. He raised over $590,000 for this important cause. 



    In today's conversation, Paul takes me through his journey and progression within the sport, the logistics behind planning a trans con run, how he preserved despite wanting to throw in the towel every single morning, what's next, and so much more!



    Man, was this conversation inspiring. One of the things that Paul shared with me that struck me was how, just a few years ago, he felt like his body was "literally going to fall apart running 30 miles a week," to then averaging 59 miles a day on this run. His story is one of dedication and the power of running for something bigger than yourself.

Very informative and helpful

As a high school runner who is obsessed with running m and rarely has someone to talk about the subject as passionately as I do, it’s very nice to see or hear a show where I can indulging the stories, advice, and training of athletes who I look up to and admire.
