ARC: Episode 68 - Oliver James - Running in the US Collegiate System

On this episode, Tomi speaks with Oliver James.

Oliver is from the North East, but has lived in America ever since moving over there for college back in 2013/14.

Today, he shares what got him into running and how, although he started late, he was able to get to near the top of the rankings of athletes in the North East in his age group.

We go on a journey from the North East to Louisianna, in which Oliver tells us about his choice to move over to the US, how training in the US is dfifferent than in the UK and what competitions are like.

He breaks down what the US student athlete life looks like and how he had to train in order to compete in his conference.

Oliver talks about the different divisions and conferences and all the competitons you need to perform well in in order to make the NCAA tournaments.

Although he loves the US, the NE is his home and he loves running in Sunderland.

A wholesome episode is this, so make sure you listen all the way through to the end!

We hope you learn something, we hope you get inspired and we hope you Find Your Fire.
