    Today's episode is one I've been wanting to make happen for over a year now!


    I have the extreme privilege of speaking with Juliette Whittaker.


    Juliette is an exceptional athlete who competes for Stanford University. Throughout her collegiate career at Stanford so far, she has garnered numerous accolades, including winning the NCAA indoor distance medley relay championship in 2023 and being named a four-time All-American. She's claimed titles like the Pac-12 800 champion and Pac-12 Women's Track and Field Freshman of the Year in 2023. Juliette's impressive athletic record extends to her time as a U.S. under-20 800 champion and a national high school outdoor record-holder for the 800 meters. Her exceptional personal bests, including a 1:59.04 in the 800 and a 4:12.49 in the 1,500 meters, have solidified her as a top performer. Notably, she's earned the Stanford Athletics Board Conference Athlete of the Year award and has excelled academically, making the USTFCCCA All-Academic list and being named to the Pac-12 Academic Honor Roll. Juliette's accomplishments, from setting records to winning championships, speak to her dedication and remarkable talent in the world of track and field.


    Juliette was also On Running's first NCAA NIL deal.


    In today's conversation, Juliette shares her story, her dominance in high-school, reflections from her Freshman year at Stanford, and much more! I hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did having it.
