Welcome, Allie Wilson to More Than Running! Allie is a member of the Atlanta Track Club and a graduate of Monmouth University. This season Allie has been on a tear in the 800m recently running the World Championship Standard 1:58.18 at the Track Meet on May 12th. Allie gave everything she had a went a bit *viral* falling and winning over the finish line! Allie's positivity and team-oriented nature is infectious and this episode had me smiling the whole time. Allie's attitude toward running and recovering after multiple injuries is one we could all take some notes from. 
"Our sport is so much biggest than the physical thing that we doing. There are so many incredible people you meet through this sport. Something I think about what we are doing and I think 'yeah do we have to be competitive with each other? Are we all trying to win? Are we all trying to make XYZ, yes but I think sometimes aren't we doing it together?' It feels like we are doing it together. It is so incredible to have the people around you pushing themselves to their limits simultaneously. Anyone who does this sport knows it's so much more than running!"
