    If you would have listened to me on February 9th when I said to buy Dylan Jacobs stock, you would be thriving.


    Since that appearance on the podcast, Dylan ran the #2 best time ever in NCAA history in the 3k, clocking 7:36 in the 3k at the 2023 Millrose Games. He then went on to win two SEC titles (one in the 5k, one in the DMR). He then claimed first place in the 5,000-meter at the NCAA Championships with a time of 13:37.59 - good enough to break the facility record, high-altitude collegiate record, and become the first NCAA men's 5k champion in Tenessee program history. Later in the meet, he placed 6th in the 3k claiming Tennessee's best finish in the event at nationals since 1995.


    All of these accomplishments in the indoor season paved the way for Dylan to win the highly prestigious "National Athlete Of The Year" award. Dylan currently sits on the Bowerman Watch List (The Heisman Trophy for Track & Field).


    In this conversation, Dylan recaps all of the above with his reflections, lessons learned, and how it's propelling him forward in this outdoor track season. This conversation is full of wisdom and insights that will inspire and motivate you to chase after your biggest goals.
