Marathon Trials Spotlight: Fiona O'Keeffe !
Our second installment in our miniseries of spotlights around the women of the 2024 USA Olympic Team Trials Marathon is Fiona O’Keeffe.
As a 6 time all American at Stanford graduating in 2020 Fiona got to chase some fast women on her own team in the middle distance events. She steps up to the Marathon as one of a few women debuting in the distance at the trials. Since joining the Puma Elite running team with coaches Amy Hastings Cragg and Alistair Cragg, Fiona has run great times as the events got longer like her 10k pb of 30:52 and 67:42 in the half - I think 26.2 will follow this trend and we can’t wait to watch her run the event! -

Customer Reviews
Liberty track club
I just loved Molly's interview with the ladies of Liberty track club. As an older runner. I really appreciate hearing from ladies of my generation! Thanks Molly for a great interview!
Love their choice of diverse podcast guests!
In my opinion, Keeping Track is the top podcast focusing on women’s running out there. That is because they give a platform to pro runners who are women of color — people who have been overlooked by many of the other big running podcasts out there. The diversity of voices and opinions on Keeping Track is refreshing, and I appreciate the podcast’s willingness to tackle tough issues, such as talking openly about race in a very white sport. Hats off to the ladies of Keeping Track for highlighting excellent and interesting pro runners who bring a unique perspective to their sport!!
