Sean competes for Nike's Bowerman Track Club and has for his entire professional career. For those who aren't familiar with Sean, he has a long history of success from the time he was in high school. In high school, he won more state-championships and had more accolades than one could remember. In college, Sean became an NCAA Champion in the 5k at Stanford University and pushed forward that program to a new level in his years of representing the farm. In today's conversation, Sean takes me through his 2024 season, the ups/downs, and everything in between. We discuss his ambitions for the future, why humans are hard on themselves, reflections from his career thus far, XC stories from back in the day, and much more.  Anytime I get Sean on the podcast, it's a deep, thoughtful conversation.
