733. Juliette Whittaker's 2024 U.S. Olympic Track & Field Team Trials Recap

"When I crossed the line, I was in so much shock. I kept having to check the board to make sure I was reading it right!"

Juliette Whittaker is a college student who just finished third in the Women's 800m race at the Olympic Track and Field Trials, and will be going to Paris later this summer to represent Team USA at the Olympics. A college student. Going to the Olympics. In this conversation, the Stanford University junior (who has an NIL deal with On) returns to the Ali on the Run Show to talk about what it took to make Team USA in a very dramatic final.
