Shane Cohen on going from a walk on to an NCAA Champion, sitting and kicking and more

Today I’m joined by Shane Cohen! Shane has quite the story. He transferred from the University of Tampa where he was an All-American to Virginia last fall and had some thrilling races this season. He uses the infamous Sit and Kick strategy and it helped him Win the 800m NCAA National Championship a little over a month ago. As his confidence has grown and he’s gotten to race better competition he took his 800m personal best from 1:49 to an astounding 1:44. After the college season wrapped up he qualified for the Olympic Trials where he was able to finish 6th in the country. This was a really fun one to record as Shane discusses his outlook on getting better, his love for the team aspect of the sport, and much more.
