Show Notes

For Valarie Allman, discus wasn't something she anticipated getting into from a young age. Once a dancer, she fell into the sport when offered a plate at her high school team's pasta party. The rest? Is history. Now an Olympic Champion and recently earning bronze at the World Championships, Allman — an Asics athlete —opens up about her journey in episode 220. She shares what it's been like training as a throwing athlete, and her big hopes for the future. Plus, we have a lengthy discussion about how it feels to come up short on your goals, and how to shift your mindset going forward to use your #hurdlemoments to your advantage.
