The spring season of track & field is getting pretty hot. We spoke to Roisin Willis, one of the top high school 800m runners in US and 2020-21 Gatorade T&F Athlete of the year. Last weekend, she competed with New Balance TC athletes, Heather MacLean, Kendall Ellis and Elle Purrier St. Pierre on an indoor distance medley. Roisin ran the 800m leg in 2:03.30. The team ran 10:33.85, a new world indoor DMR best by 6.06 seconds!
