In episode fifty-two of The Running Effect, I speak with Micaela DeGenero. After battling Covid earlier this year, Micaela bounced back making her first-ever NCAA Indoor Championship meet. After qualifying for the final, she texted her boyfriend saying, "I just hope I don't get last place". Not only did she make the meet, but with a 61-second last lap won her first-ever NCAA title in dominant fashion.
In this episode we go through Micaela's backstory in the sport of running, her years of running at Michigan, why she thinks it's important to focus on achieving high marks in the classroom, what went into the decision to transfer to Colorado, how she's dealt with injuries and low confidence, her journey to making the NCAA meet, her championship race, and so much more!
It was an absolute pleasure getting to speak with Micaela for the first time and hear her inspiring story. Keep your eyes peeled for lots more of Micaela on the national stage!
