from 2019-09-10T15:54:25

:: ::

Salomon athlete, Jackson Brill, is a 21-year old senior in college at CU Boulder, but given his approach to running, the way he talks about the sport, and his race results, you’d be forgiven for assuming that he was twice as old as he is. So we talked to Jackson about his studies and his work in CU’s Locomotion Lab; being teammates with Kilian Jornet; his experience with the Golden Trail Series; and his strong interest in coaching.

TOPICS & TIMES:

  • Golden Trail Series (3:10)
  • Lessons learned from studying physiology (14:02)
  • Ascents or Descents? (19:30)

  • Growing up & downhill ski racing (31:00)
  • The “distance” question (34:41)
  • If you could only run 1 race in the next 2 years? (39:38)
