Running A 3:56 Mile Off Of Three Years Of Serious Running With Callum Elson
Today on the podcast is World Silver Medalist Callum Elson!
A Cambridge and Coleridge athlete, Elson ran as a youngster and finished 16th in the English Schools Cross Country Champs in 2017, but while at the University of Durham concentrated on playing football and only began running seriously again during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
In 2022, he left American International College in Boston, Massachusetts and returned to the UK. He represented Britain for the first time at the European Cross Country Championships in Turin, Italy in December 2022.
In February 2023, he was selected to compete for Great Britain at the 2023 World Athletics Cross Country Championships in Bathurst, New South Wales.
Elson ran a new area record time of 3:56.41 to win the silver medal in the road mile at the 2023 World Athletics Road Running Championships in Riga.
Most insane of all, Callum has only been running for three years seriously. The sky is seriously the limit for this guy.
In today's episode, Callum and I discuss his upbringing in the sport, training/living the UK, his year in the NCAA system, the biggest lessons he's learned from the sport, the World Mile Championships, his future ambitions, and so much more!
