Description
Aussie export, YouTube sensation and part time Under Armour athlete - Morgan McDonald. (@morganmcdonald__)  By way of introduction, Morgan is a University of Wisconsin Alumni, 4x NCAA Champ, is fresh off a 7:41 3000m and indoor 2-mile Australian Record (8:14). Accolades aside, however, this week on the pod it was great to catch up and find out what makes Morgan tick. In just an hour he discusses everything from his junior successes, his glorious mullet to how he ended up on YouTube - do yourself a favour and check it out! 📺 Based in Boulder Colorado, Morgan is currently running with Team Boss under the guidance of Joe Bosshard. Needless to say, his path to the sport is a unique and interesting one for an Aussie athlete. Though surrounded by talented company, Morgan remains humble - a positive force in the running community. He’s an individual who doesn’t shy away from honest dialogue while maintaining hilarity. As the Olympics creep ever closer he’s certainly one to keep an eye on, and with such a unique entry and great insight into the life of a professional athlete, it’s a podcast not to be missed. We also wish him luck in his upcoming 5000m. Smash it Morgan!
