"The Athlete Special" Spencer Brown on Being A Running YouTube OG, Becoming A Brooks Beast, 2021 Trials Goals
Podcast

“What I did, anyone else can do and more people should be doing that. The running market is starting to get a lot bigger. There are more people making YouTube channels because they’re thinking, ‘I can do that.’ You know I had an iPhone until I hit 30,000 subscribers. I’m still using iMovie until this day. It doesn’t have to be unbelievable quality videos. People are a little scared to make that jump. Having no fear helps me stay motivated to put out content and also show that I’m somewhat of an elite runner and I’m trying my best to continue.”

My guest for today’s episode is Spencer Brown but many of you might know him as The Athlete Special from his popular YouTube series. Some of you who have been following CITIUS MAG from the start might be familiar with him because he was one of the original contributors to the site and ran a 4:16 Blue Jeans Mile back in 2017 to set a then-world record. He’s come a long way since. He has run 3:39 for the 1,500 meters and 3:59.97 for the mile. Recently, Brooks decided to take a chance on him and sign him to a contract that will have him training with the Brooks Beasts and coach Danny Mackey in Seattle, Washington. His goal is to make it to the 2021 U.S. Olympic Trials. You’ll hear more about how that deal came to be, his goals and expectations for himself as well as the background story on when he got his start in running on the competitive Connecticut high school scene and then what led him to pick up a camera to start documenting it all to the masses.

Former Oregon distance runner Emma Abrahamson joins The CITIUS MAG Podcast fresh off accepting a job with Doyle Management Group, which oversees a bunch of elite athletes. Emma has done a great job of building a following for herself with a foodie Instagram account (@onecrazedfoodie) and then her own YouTube channel.  She's very funny. We chat about how she got into running, the decision to stop competing at the NCAA level, building a brand and much more. We discuss Logan and Jake Paul for a hot second. There's a shout-out to Spencer Brown of The Athlete Special YouTube channel, who she considers one of the OGs of running vlogging. Other topics include dispelling some of the myths of eating and running that sometimes people can fall into a trap with. Emma has some great advice. We run through most of the listener questions that were submitted on Instagram. You can catch the latest episode of the podcast on iTunes so subscribe and leave a five-star review.
