Today on the podcast is Oregon Duck, Maddy Elmore!


Maddy has quickly established herself over the past year as one of the top runners in the NCAA. She's run three school records over the past few months. In December she broke the indoor mark in the 3,000 with her time of 8:50.43. She then anchored the distance medley relay to a time of 10:47.50 during the Razorback Invitational in January.


And then, just a few short weeks ago, Maddy broke the 39-year-old program record in the women's 5,000 meters with her victory in 15 minutes 15.79 seconds during the Stanford Invitational meet in Stanford, California.


Her previous best was 16:11.77.


This season, Maddy is looking to continue to turn heads and surprise people with her record-breaking performances.


Before her time at Oregon, she ran for South Eugene High School where she was the 2019 OSAA 6A state champion at 1500 meters.


In today's conversation, Maddy discusses her upbringing in the sport, her decision to almost entirely step away from it, how Shalane Flanagan brought back her love for it, her record-breaking performances, and much more!
