Pursuing the Olympic Dream, and having fun while doing it!!
This week’s Podcast brings an inspiring and incredibly refreshing chat with the young Samuel Tanner (@samueltanner_). Coached by previous guest of the Pod Craig Kirkwood (@craig.kirkwood), and training partner to New Zealand Triathlete Hayden Wilde (@hayden_wilde) - Sam is a New Zealand born middle distance runner and Olympic hopeful.
On the Podcast he discusses his unconventional introduction to running, and how initially he found surfing as a supplement to training! Though now as a collegiate runner at the University of Washington it’s all guns blazing.?
What was so great to hear from Sam is the relaxed demeanour he has about him. It is clear that despite the incredible talent he possesses, the love of the sport and the love of life has not been lost on him. He has an incredible appreciation for not only his coaches and training partners but also fellow peers in the sport alike.
Tune in to this weeks podcast to hear more about his transition to college, running breakthrough and how he balances the training between his coaches in the States and at home.
We also wish him luck this weekend as he races an indoor 1500m with a STACKED field as they attempt to crack the Olympic qualifier. Go Sam!!
