Way back in 2013, Katie Follett won the 3000m in the Stockholm DL, one of the first Americans to ever do that. Katie is a fearless competitor, and her optimism shines through this entire interview. I have missed her countenance, and am happy to catch up with her. Oh, one more thing, don’t miss Cait Chock’s superb piece on Katie, right here: https://www.runblogrun.com/2022/01/katie-follett-and-a-new-kind-of-redemption.html

One more thing. I asked Katie what event she really wanted to run again, and she said, the 1,500 meters, of course!
