Description

Today on the podcast is Alex Millard, one of the top runners in the NCAA! 




Alex currently attends and competes for Providence College. She most recently placed 2nd at the 2024 Big East XC Championships. 




Prior to her time at Providence, Alex attended Loughborough University, where she was the National U20 Cross Country Champion in 2022. She also earned a Bronze Medal at the European U23 Cross Country Championships in 2022.




On the track, she placed sixth (4:11 .67) in the 1,500 meters at the European Athletics U23 Championships. This year, she was also a member of the Bronze Medal Great Britain Mixed Relay Team at the World Cross Country Championship.




Alex holds PRs of 4:05 .58 in the 1500m, 8:52 .02 in the 3k, and 15:18 .15 in the 5k. 




In today's conversation, Alex takes me through her first year in the NCAA, placing 2nd at Big East, her ambitions for herself and her team going into championship season, the biggest differences between the UK and the US, insights from her training, mindset, and much more.
