Description
Today on the podcast are the fastest twins in the country, Olivia & Andrea Markezich!
Olivia placed 3rd at the 2023 NCAA XC Championships in Charlotte, Virginia, a few months ago. That incredible performance led her team to a 4th place finish! This was also one week after coming down with sickness. A few week short weeks later, she opened up the indoor season with a time of 8:40.42 in the 3k, breaking her own school record which was previously set last season as she ran an 8:50.08. Her time of 8:40.42 also ranks #2 all-time! Last year, Olivia won the 3000M steeplechase at the 2023 NCAA Championships with a remarkable time of 9:25.03, setting a facility record at the University of Texas. Olivia also signed an NIL Deal with On last year.
Andrea placed 35th at the 2023 NCAA XC Championships in Charlotte, Virginia, a few months ago, gaining All-American status and helping her team place 4th overall! Before her time at the University of Notre Dame, she ran for UW and was the 2023 Pac-12 10,000m Runner-Up, a part of the 2023 All-America Second Team in the DMR, and in 2022 All-Pac-12 Second Team XC. This Fall, Andrea will be working at Dell Technologies as an Emerging Technologies Specialist in the NGSA Program!
Before their time in college, Olivia and Andrea pushed each other consistently on and off the course, helping each other make it to where they're both at today. They re-joined forces this past year when Andrea transferred to Notre Dame to close out her NCAA eligibility (under the condition from Olivia that she dye her hair blonde - more on this in the podcast).
Today's conversation is the definition of wholesome. Two twins chopping it up on their journey in sport and life, and how they've pushed each other through it all. This episode is the perfect mix of serious and insightful while also being incredibly fun and lighthearted.
This episode will make your weekend miles fly by! Tap into the Markezich Twins Special.
