The Running Effect Podcast

"It's hard before it gets easy; getting there is the hard part. You have to be so confident in yourself that people think you're delusional." 

This is a podcast I've been wanting to make happen since March of 2022. Yaseen Abdalla has gone from a 24min 5k guy to NCAA National Champion. The story of Yaseen Abdalla is one full of ups and downs, and I left this conversation incredibly inspired. Yaseen is the David Goggins of the NCAA. He has an unbreakable mind that was fascinating to explore. Yaseen recently ran 7:42 in the 3k moving inside the collegiate all-time top 10. Yaseen also competed for his country of Sudan at the 2022 Eugene World Championships in July in the 5k. 

In this podcast, Yaseen and I discuss his upbringing in the sport, throwing away his NCAA All-American medal, his teammate Dylan Jacobs running 7:36 in the 3k, confidence, failure, challenging the status quo, and making jumps in this sport. Through Yaseen's personal experiences and knowledge, you will gain a deeper understanding of the mental and physical components of running and how to apply them to enhance your own running journey and ultimately improve the quality of your life.
