Description
In Episode 2 of The Call Room Rising Stars, I have the privilege of speaking with Drew Griffith!
If you're not familiar with Drew, he is one of the biggest up-and-coming stars in the US prep distance scene. Drew is the reigning Foot Locker Northeast Regional Champion. He went on to place 6th at the National Meet after throwing up the night before (more fun BTS in the podcast). Drew currently holds PRs of 4:07 in the Mile, 8:48 in the 2-Mile, and most recently ran 14:21 in XC, making him the 11th fastest ever at the distance. Needless to say, Drew is on a tear and nothing seems to be holding him back as we get into the postseason.
In today's conversation, Drew and I go through his story, from his early passion for swim to progressively getting more serious about the sport of running. We go through winning the Foot Locker Northeast Regional last year, placing 6th in the country while being sick, and not having the track season he was hoping to have. Lastly, we get into his ambitions for the rest of the season, lessons from his successful career, and so much more. Today's episode is one for the books! Many good nuggets of wisdom in here that you can apply directly into your running and life.
Tap into the Drew Griffith Special.
Today's episode is a part of "The Call Room Rising Stars" a series where you will meet the next generation of stars, hear their journey to get to where they are today, and get an inside look at their preparation going into the Foot Locker Regional & National Meets.
