There’s so much more to running than the results.
Here we have honest conversations about the good, the bad, and the hidden moments of an athlete’s journey.
Because behind the scenes, everyone’s got their Hidden Race.
Olivia Keller: Reaching the Summit while Enjoying the View
"People" is the word that comes to mind when I think of Olivia Keller.
It's the kids she inspires with her book. It's the teammates that she leads and is led by on the track.
It's the patients from around the world she's gotten to serve.
Over the past 22 years, people have invested in her, and she's responded to that investment in an amazing way.
We'll take a slow climb through her track career and professional life, with all the highlights and lowlights. We'll start at the base at high school until the Summit with a few Summit League Conference track titles, and take plenty of pit stops to enjoy the view; the friends she made along the way.

Jack Meggison: Trusting Jesus in the Highs and Lows
I was really excited to have Jack on the podcast because there aren’t a lot of conversations out there between 2 dudes about Jesus and mental health. We walked through Jack’s entire cross country and track career so far and looked at his highs and lows and how no moment was wasted: it all happened for a reason. So if you’re struggling and unsure if your setbacks have purpose (spoiler alert: they do), or just want to hear an inspiring story or a pick-me-up, this one’s for you!

Sara Gastony & Layla Vennink: Teammates for Life
This is college sophomore Layla Vennink and college freshman Sara Gastony. They've been teammates since middle school at Prior Lake, despite being a year apart in school. This year, they'll once again be teammates at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul. This past season, as a college sophomore and college freshman, they both won conference titles. Sara also went on to win her section meet and had an outstanding performance at the NCAA Championships.
It was Layla's first outdoor college conference meet, and she entered the 800 meters seeded 12th. As you'll hear, she far exceeded expectations. We dive into all the drama surrounding that race, what happened throughout the meet, and what the victory meant, not only for Layla, but for the St. Thomas team as a whole.
In my four years around track and field and cross country, I've noticed that Prior Lake and St. Thomas are two of the most tight-knit teams I've ever seen. We talk about what makes those cultures so special and share practical lessons you can apply in your own life, whether you're leading a team, an organization, or simply trying to be a better leader every day.
