Ep. 132 - The Mental Side Of The Sub-4 Quest With 4:01 Miler Corbin Coombs.

This week on the show is Corbin Coombs. Corbin is a senior out of ​Organ Mountain High School in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Coombs has demonstrated exceptional prowess on the track and cross-country courses. He shattered the New Mexico state record in the mile with a time of 4:02.59 at the Millrose Games, marking the fastest mile ever run by a New Mexico high school athlete. He later lowered this to 4:01. His impressive performances include sweeping the 800m and 1600m at the Class 5A state meet and securing a second-place finish in the 2-mile at Nike Outdoor Nationals with a personal best of 8:53.44. Corbin Coombs is also the New Mexico Class 5A State Champion, beating the now-known NXN champ, Charlie Vause. Today on the show, Corbin and I talk all about the sub-4 mile barrier, why the mental side of the sport is so important, competition being the activation energy to get better, and his thoughts on the Arcadia 3200m.Please drop a follow and five-star review on Apple Podcast and Spotify.
