Ep. 145 | MIDWEEK SUMMER SPECIAL - Inside The Career Of A 2X National Champion & National Record-Holder With Herriman Stud Tayshaun Ogomo
Description
Today on the podcast is Tayshaun Ogomo.
Tayshaun is a graduated senior out of Herriman High School in Utah. He will be running at Utah Sate University this fall.
Tayshaun holds PRs of:
800m: 1:48 .87* (Altitude converted: 1:49 .40)3-mile XC: 13:57 5K XC: 14:44
Tayshaun just recently set the high school 4x800m National Record with the Herriman squad at the New Balance Outdoor Nationals meet. This was a statement race for the Herriman team, especially after falling short at NXN this past fall, where they were the defending champs. Tayshaun and I discussed the emotions of what it meant for that team to fall short and the mental approach he took to making the comeback.
And yes, there was a comeback.
At New Balance Indoor Nationals, Herriman proved they are the best team in the nation and that NXN 2024 was a fluke, winning the DMR National Title. They then followed it up with that aforementioned national title in the 4x800m.
In addition to the Herriman team dynamic, Tayshaun and I discuss the impact that Doug Soles has had on his career, as well as his individual success in the sport, claiming his first state title in a walk-off win at the Utah State meet.
Overall, amazing conversation with Tayshaun. You will not want to miss this one.
Please consider leaving a follow and a five-star review! I am on a mission this summer to deliver the highest quality video podcast in the sport of distance-running.
I hope you enjoy this episode of The Sunday Shakeout.
