    Back on the podcast today is Ky Robinson!


    Ky was undoubtedly one of the greatest NCAA runners of our generation. Competeing for the storied Stanford University, Ky was a 2xNCAA Champion (5k/10k), leading to him being named the Men's Outdoor Track National Athlete of the Year in 2023 


    Ky is Stanford school-record holder in the mile, steeplechase, 5,000, and indoor 3,000.


    Ky was also a 13-time All-American, an accomplishment that I have only seen once or twice in the 450 episodes of this podcast. 


    Ky has run 3:52 (Mile), 7:36 (3k), 13:06 (5k), and 27:44 (10k). 


    Ky signed with On and the OAC out of college and will be going into his first full rookie year with them in 2025.


    In today's conversation, Ky takes me through his final year at Stanford, his reflections on the legacy he left there, his decision to turn pro with On, his ambitions for the future, and much more!


    I always thoroughly enjoy my conversations with Ky and this one is packed full of stories, wisdom, and actionable takeaways. Don't miss it!


    Tap into the Ky Robinson Special.
