Today on the podcast is NAU legend, Theo Quax!
If you're not familiar with him, Theo runs for NAU and has been a part of many of the NCAA Championship wins. He has consistently excelled, earning recognition like the USTFCCCA Men's National Athlete of the Week and Big Sky Athlete of the Week awards. He's maintained a strong performance record, even at high-level competitions like the NCAA Championships, consistently pushing his team forward. Theo's exceptional performances have solidified his reputation as a top-tier athlete in his field. Prior to his years at NAU, he was a two-time NZ 1500m Champion U20 (2016, 2017), the 2017 U20 NZ Road Race National Champion, and a 2018 World Junior Qualifier in the 1500m.
In today's episode, Theo goes through his successful career, the lessons he's learned, insights from being on multiple NCAA Championship teams, misconceptions about the program, and much more. Theo is full of exuberance and wisdom, making this episode one of my all-time favorites. Theo brought a ton of wisdom and knowledge to this conversation today.
