Season 1, Episode 17: A conversation with former Center Point-Urbana and Drake runner Josh Yeager

from The Run Around Iowa · host Lance Bergeson

Josh offers proof that perseverance is rewarded. After an injury-plagued Drake University career he calls "bittersweet," Josh has flourished on the track as a graduate student at South Dakota State University. He has dropped 57 seconds in the 5,000 meters in just 18 months. He won MVP honors of the recent Summit League event and has his sights set on next week's NCAA West Regional 3,000 steeplechase race in College Station, Texas. Josh also talks about the surprise of winning his first Drake Relays title last month and coaches who have shaped his running career. He also tells the story of CP-U's one-of-a-kind Stormin' Pointers nickname and why he's certain his best races are ahead as he closes the book on his time at SDSU and pursues a professional running career.
