548. Beyond the Run with Michelle Wolf

548. Beyond the Run with Michelle Wolf

"These people are out on the track, by themselves, just with their own body and their own mind. It's really cool to watch. It's cool to watch humans push themselves like that. And I want everyone else to be as excited about it as I am."

Michelle Wolf is a stand-up comic, an ultra runner, and a massive fan of track and field. So it makes perfect sense that she was at World Athletics Championships in Eugene, OR, last month! In this conversation, Michelle talks about how she ended up in Eugene, working with the Hayward Magic team on an Instagram series called "Loosen Up with Michelle Wolf." (Fun fact: She got the job, in part, after her appearance on the Ali on the Run Show last year!) She talks about interviewing athletes including Athing Mu, Ryan Crouser, Grant Fisher, and Marvin Bracy-Williams, and shares the highs and lows of her time at Hayward Field.
