Quentin Nauman: 3:58 Miler, 10x State Champion, Legendary Kick— How Iowa's Most Dangerous Senior Is Coming for Alan Webb's HS Mile Record Of 3:53

Quentin Nauman is already a legend in Iowa. This spring season is the encore

The greatest prep distance runner in Iowa history enters his final outdoor season with 10 state titles, two national championships, and one goal left unfinished.

Two weeks ago at Nike Indoor Nationals, Nauman anchored Iowa's DMR team to a national title in 9:46.23, edging Texas by under a second in a dramatic final 200 meters. For an athlete defined by solo dominance, it was a glimpse of something new.

Now he's back for his last run at the Drake Relays triple sweep (800m, 1600m, 3200m), and a legitimate shot at the national high school mile record before heading to Oregon in the fall.

This is a return visit for Quentin, and the story has gotten bigger. This episode is part of The Running Effect's ongoing Festival of Miles series.

One more outdoor season. One more shot at the record. One last chance to cement a legacy that's already unlike anything Iowa has ever seen.

In this episode, Quentin opens up on the NIN team win, the Oregon decision, coach Elaina Biechler, and what it actually feels like to be chasing something when you've already won everything.
