This week on the podcast is Will Purnell of Boston College!
Will is a Seattle Prep alum and is currently in his junior year of the program, holding PRs of 4:04 for 1500, 14:17 for 5K, and 8:24 for 3K.
Will and I dive dive deep into the collegiate running experience. We explore the magic of Boston University’s track, the unique challenges and rewards of balancing a demanding academic schedule with high-level athletics, his thoughts on Seattle Prep's rise to success, and the journey from high school running to collegiate competition. Will opens up about a stress reaction that he suffered in the fall and the battle he has fought to come back and run major PR's.
