Coach Mike Smith Defining The Mindset And Culture Of The NAU Cross Country Dynasty

Coach Mike Smith Defining The Mindset And Culture Of The NAU Cross Country Dynasty

"We don't talk about winning national championships...What may sound close to it is – we want to execute a great team race in moments that matter. So language we're really careful about. Winning, second, third, fourth, sixth – those are outcomes. I gotta teach this stuff the years that we get 19th. The teaching is the same."

We made it happen. Today we have the pleasure of speaking with Coach Mike Smith of Northern Arizona University. With more than 20 years of coaching experience under his belt, Coach Smith has turned the Northern Arizona cross country program into a dynasty. Since joining the team in 2016, the Lumberjacks have won multiple Big Sky Conference Championships for both men and women. The men’s team has won six national titles in the past seven years. Coach Smith has been at the helm for five of those. He’s produced multiple All-Americans and Olympians. He is a five-time USTFCCCA National Men's Coach of the Year. In this chat, we'll be discussing his coaching philosophy and what he's learned on the job to create a winning culture. Enjoy!
