Ep 273 - There's A Test At The End (Gary Martin & Juliette Whittaker)
Chris is solo this week, and although Julie is dearly missed we have a big show! We have 2 High School track super stars: Gary Martin and Juliette Whittaker join the show. We first talk to Gary about his sub 4 min mile in a HS race - the fastest sub 4 in an all High School race ever - 3:57. His time is 5th ever overall for HS. Gary tells us about his record breaking season and we get the details of the day he broke 4 and what we did after the race.
We are then joined by Juliette Whittaker, who recently broke 2 minutes in the 800 meters. She is only the 2nd female to break the 2 minute barrier. We also talk to her about her "regular" High School experiences like almost missing her fastest race of her life because of traffic. We touch on her Dad as her coach, her Dad who was a star runner at Georgetown in the 90s. We finish with Juliette asking her if she is going to compete with the seniors and try to make the World Team in Eugene, or compete for a spot on the U20 team that goes to Columbia this Summer.
We bring them both together at the end. We address a tweet from FastWomen.com and finish with a test. Spoiler, the both pass with flying colors.
