757. Jess Hull, Olympic 1500m Silver Medalist & 2000m World Record Holder

"Both of us had that on our mind in the last lap of the Olympic 1500 Final: 'We're not going to be going home empty handed today.'"

Jessica Hull has had a heck of a year. The Australian middle-distance runner ran a massive personal best in the 1500 meters (3:50.83), won Silver at the Olympics in the 1500, broke the World Record in the 2000m, and, in total, earned 15 podium finishes during her racing season. In this conversation, Jess shares her highs and lows from the year, and talks about what it's like being part of the women's 1500m community right now. She talks about The Faith Effect, and about why lining up next to Faith Kipyegon is the best thing for the sport. Plus, what's coming up for Jess, and why she decided to sign with Grand Slam Track.
