Olympian Klaudia Kazimierska on winning a Big Ten XC Team title with Oregon, journey to a sub 4 minute 1500m, and more

Today I’m joined by Klaudia Kazimierska! Klaudia just helped Oregon win a Big Ten Cross Country title by placing 11th and a West Regional title by placing 12th, which secured an automatic bid to Nationals for the women of Oregon. She also holds a personal best of 3:59 in the 1500m and represented Poland in the Olympics over the summer where she placed 10th in the world. And she got on the podium in the 2024 NCAA 1500m final where she placed 3rd. After her incredible track season Nike took notice and she recently signed an NIL deal with them which she was stoked about. Klaudia almost didn’t run cross country for the Ducks this year because of how long her  track season was but she ended up going for it and is having quite the impact. Tune into this episode to hear Klaudia discuss how Oregon needed some time to adjust but these incredible team performances aren’t a surprise to them, her pursuit of sub four over last track season, her favorite things to bake and more.
