Makenna Myler is a professional distance runner for Asics who has lived all over the world, now trains in Utah, and she qualified for her first Olympic Trials after becoming a mother. We talk about being coachable, having tough conversations with teammates to create a healthy competitive culture, your circle of control, training in tune with your hormones, and our shared love of ridiculous holiday cards.

This interview was done as research for the book I’m writing about the mental lessons learned and practiced in running and motherhood. I’m sharing these recordings so you can come along in this book writing process with me!
