Sit & Kick

If you are unfamiliar with the Millrose Games, it can be best described as the Indoor "Super Bowl" for Track & Field. The best of the best, most prestigious, and most anticipated are safe descriptions of this event. It was once held in Madison Square Garden and has found its home in the historic New York Armory. This year's event will be literally for the record books as owner/host of the podcast Josh Kerr goes after a World Record!

The 2024 Milrose Games is shaping up to be one of the best in history as multiple world records will be attempted. Josh Kerr is in the two-mile, and Yared Nuguse is in the one-mile. The day will be full of nonstop action, ultimately allowing this preview to be an hour long. This episode of Sit & Kick covers this weekend's meet, events, and athletes in play. The two hosts, Erik Sowinksi and David Ribich draft their teams and pick their favorites ahead of the most anticipated indoor track and field weekend. This is the first real weekend of Track & Field, where Olympic Champion hopefuls begin to line up against one another to kick off their season.

Simone Plourde may be new to the professional scene, but how she races and handles everything running would make you think she has been in the sport for decades.

Simone Plourde rose to recognition quickly in the NCAA while at the University of Utah. She finished 4th in the 3000m at NCAA Indoors, Pac-12 champion over 1500m, and earned All-American honors in the outdoor 5000m. It wasn't a perfect final year for the NCAA, but it was a perfect year for her to transition into the professional ranks, signing with Nike and UAC.

Her summer consisted of a podium finish at the Canadian Championships and representing Team Canada in Budapest at the World Championships. Even after the long year, she lowered her 1500m PR to 4:06.

Simone is well-spoken and articulate in how she talks about running, but not in the way you might think. She is a refreshing listen and we are sure her mindset and monologues will make you a fan of hers ahead of the Paris 2024.

Topics of the Episode include:

- Introduction to running and NCAA system/transfering Universities

- Decision to leave NCAA early

- Exceeding all expectations in 2023

- First World Championship experience

- Nike/UAC

- Fan Submitted

- BanterBowl

Disclaimer: Audio quality is lower than in previous episodes as Dave forgot his microphone cord and headphones but ordered a new set that will be ready for the next episode. Enjoy!

Welcome back to the better host, Josh Kerr!

Enjoy the return of Josh in the host seat, or more like a hot seat, as he comes out swinging in the most banterish way possible. Josh is not shy to speak his mind, but this is the most authentic podcast he has had in months: In-depth analysis of the SD Half Marathon run of 61:51, how training is leading into a world record attempt, and all the Ins & Outs of 2024.

When he and Dave get behind the mic, banter, and laughs will be had. Also, candid conversations and fan-submitted questions will be answered honestly and in-depth. 

This episode bounces around from conversations like training for the "downhill" half marathon, executing a race plan, off-seasons, how to deal with goal setting and burnout, focuses for 2024 & more.

Isaiah Harris is not only a fan favorite for podcast guests but also one of our favorites for the 2024 Olympic team. Zay has nearly a decade of dominance under his belt for 800m, from winning NCAA titles with Penn State to representing his first US Senior team in 2017, 2022(i), and 2023. Zay has shown that experience is everything in the 800m, and he has what it takes to compete for the 2024 Olympic Team. In this episode, expect some high-quality banter and deep-dive conversations as two friends tackle various topics like professionals. Dave and Zay were teammates for one year but have known each other for some time. Topics covered include: - Dream 4x800m team to take down the WR of 7:02 by Kenya - Placing 4th in the 2021 Tokyo Trials - winning a diamond league two weeks later - What it takes to make the 2024 Team - I experienced another World Championship while watching a friend become a World Champion. - What Josh Kerr brings as a teammate - Zay is challenging Dave over 1000m for $1000! - & so much more! DISCLAIMER: This video and audio have been edited to eliminate a few minutes where Isaiah's microphone was not picking up sound. With that said, the 3-minute opening dialogue by Dave is due to that edit.

In a minimally edited episode, Your Host David Ribich and Craig Engels have a candid discussion of everything and anything involving Track & Field, while spicing in a bit of life updates along the way. Craig Engels is a household name in the sport and most definitely a fan favorite. Engels is a 1500m US Champion, World Finalist, and Olympic contender for 2024. If you're looking for an athlete to follow for the upcoming year, look no further than Mr. Craig "Your Moms Favorite Runner" Engels.

Next Weeks Guest: Isaiah Harris

Cheers!

In classic Sit & Kick fashion, the podcast returned with the most talked about duo in the NCAA. Nico Young & Drew Bosley! The pair of NAU Lumberjacks join the show after a busy few weeks of racing. The pair finished 5th & 6th individually at the NCAA Cross Country Championships (leading their team to a 2nd place finish) and then two weeks later, they ran the best 3k/5k double on the same day, ever?

Each of them posted marks under 7:45 for 3000m and then a few hours later ran sub 13:30 for 5000m

The return episode of S&K covered a few podcast updates. Then it transitioned to deep diving NAU, the professional scene of Flagstaff, and Coach Mike Smith's mentality that he bestows upon his athletes for racing. From there, the podcast dived into the ever-famous banter bowl.

Enjoy this hour-long episode, it is good to be back! Rate 5-star wherever you listen!!!

We've lost track of the season... so welcome to SEASON 6

The title of this episode is all the description you need to click play and kick back. However, if you still need convincing, this episode is the most in-depth Josh Kerr has gone in his build-up to the World Championships in Budapest, where he went on to win his first world title over 1500m. If you have listened to this podcast through the years you know David and Josh operate in a candid format. The episodes are less of an interview and more of a conversation between friends. This episode just so happens to be a very candid convo about rivals in Budapest, Josh's life and diet structure leading into the championships, a year's worth of races, and more. Enjoy this episode after the biggest win of Josh's career (so far).

JOSH KERR YOUR 2023 WORLD CHAMPION

Episode Graphic made by the talented: Natalia Salivia

we appreciate all the messages and DMs for this episode. We believe Sit & Kick is a very young podcast and we hope to grow it for years to come. Thank you everyone! Please rate us 5 stars wherever you listen!

The past eight weeks have been full of talkable topics from Dave getting engaged to Josh getting a bit enraged at people boasting their opinions on athletes. A full circle of conversations beginning with the NCAA Division DII Record falling to Christian Noble this past weekend and ending with a no-skin-the-game discussion on the 4xMile relay banter. Between the two topics were a variety of great chat deep diving Daves experience in Ireland and both hosts prepping for a blistering 5k on May 6th. 

This is the first episode back after an eight week mid-season break. As your hosts push closer to championship season they will still be releasing episodes frequently but the upmost importance and focus your hosts is to make their individual teams for Eugene 2022

Notable moments:

• Christian Nobles DII Record
• Transition from NCAA to Professional
• Dave Engaged & Josh's priority to make Dave hurt.
• Sound Running 5k
• A RELAY genuine conversation on "#badforthesport" Banter

On February 27th, 2022. Your Hosts Josh Kerr and Dave Ribich had one mission in mind: set some records. Commonwealth, European, British & Personal Records were absolutely smashed. This podcast episode gives you the recap of Josh's #3 All-Time race and Daves insight into the indoor season. It was real, it was personal and although not a whole lot of banter was had, it was wholesome. 

Notable Convos:

What It Takes To Run 3:48 for the Mile

At 19, Keely Hodgkinson is already one of the most decorated female middle distance athletes in UK history. However just because she is the Olympic Silver Medalist, dosent mean she can escape the banter. If anything this episode gives incredible reason to root for Keely. She is genuine, fierce and an absolute tornado on the track (this will make sense, we promise). With her Olympic medal comes her British outdoor 800m record and as of yesterday (Feb 19 2022) she became the British indoor record holder over 800m. 

If you want to hear USA vs UK relay banter, what it takes mentally to go from U20 champ to olympic runner-up then give this a play, subscribe and tell your friends. 

"During the editing phase I forgot I was even doing my job, I simply was enjoying the banter, conversations and genuine outlook Keely brings to the sport. This episode is an all-time for me, hopefully we can bring her back after more medals and records find their place with Keely." - Dave

"Do Track Differently" has been and will forever be the motto for your hosts. From roundtable talks with rising stars to paying their guest, your hosts are doing it differently. This is the first athlete paid appearance made from your hosts and they decided to have a little fun, maybe too much fun as it costed them nearly four figures. Thats alright, its all part of the banter! Cole Hocker, Cooper Teare and Charlie Hunter are household names for University of Oregon fans and need to be household names for any track fan alike. On the rise, these three former ducks have recently signed their professional contracts with Nike and look to make a return back to Hayward Field for the 2022 World Championships. 

If you combine all the accolades that these three accumulated, in the 2021 collegiate and olympic season; you would max out the character limit of Word. 

Cole Hocker 1500m PR: 3:31.40

Charlie Hunter 800m PR: 1:44.21

Cooper Teare 5000m PR: 13:12.27

This bonus episode has all the holiday spirit in one. Love, banter and some absolutely serious conversations brought on by YOU. Your hosts took the day off from planning an episode and let the Sit & Kick Community steer the recording! Was this a good idea? probably not. Was this a good episode? absolutely. 

Classic deep dive banter and all things serious (like doping in the sport) are covered in this 69 minute episode. Opening the floor to listeners to come on and control the show is a risk your hosts will always be willing to take. From your hosts "Thank you for over 100,000 listens, hours upon hours of banter and every second of pure joy." 

For this episode all your hosts ask is to enjoy it, leave a review and get ready for an incredible 2022 of performances, guests and banter.

J & D

There is no coach on the professional circuit right now with more unwarranted #banter against them. This is the exact reason why the stoic young coach is one of the best coaches in the world. He blocks out the noise & focuses on the one true aspect of the sport: His athletes well being and their success. Coach Mackey in recent years has proved himself as one of the rising professional coaches in the world however Coach Mackey will never be the one to tell you, nor will the trolls behind the message boards. The ones that will tell you however are the athletes that have first hand experience being coached by Mackey in recent years. In the year of 2018 both of your hosts David Ribich & Josh Kerr signed their professional contracts to be coached by Mackey and since then, they have improved in every event they have run (similarly has everyone on the team). 

Focusing on this episode, your hosts break the barrier of athlete & coach and have a real chat with "The Gaffer" as Josh Kerr describes in the first 5 minutes. Their is tons of insight, banter and knowledge that spans every minute of this episode. With the first Top 10 requested guest securing their spot in the season we move on to #9 and hope the trend continues. Listen to this episode NOW to find out why your hosts trust Coach Mackey with their careers. 

Some #banter to look forward too:

• Who is more coachable - Dave or Josh
• Who is the least coachable guy you’ve ever had
• What characteristics makes Josh way faster than Dave
• Do you get enough credit?
• If you had a daughter who would you rather her date - Josh or Dave
• Why is Henry Wynne’s form so bad?
• Who would win in a race, Josh’s ego or Dave’s therapist
• Who is/was more talented Kerr/Symmonds
• Most unique coaching tactic.
• How much money did Josh’s medal earn you
• Which one of your athletes is going to “surprise” people this year?

Coach Mackey 2021 stat:

Mens 1500m Olympic Bronze Medal 

Womens 1500m Olympic Semi Finalist 

7x Olympic Trials Finalists 

3x Top 5 finishes at the Olympic Trials: W5000m, M1500m, M800m

100% Athlete participation at their major national championships.

11 of 13 athlete PRs (not including multiple PRs or multiple events)

could beat any coach in the fighting ring

Your hosts decided to start the banter early when they discussed who the #1 requested guest was. lets just say it got a bit heated......

Enjoy your fav running podcast & of course leave a review wherever you listen!

David & Josh 

Your hosts have been waiting for this episode since the origin of the podcast. It is no secret what your hosts Josh Kerr and David Ribich are trying to achieve in the sport. At the young age of 23 Josh successfully won his first global medal, an Olympic Bronze in the fastest 1500m race in Olympic history. Josh Kerr now sits #2 all time on the British list for 1500m runners and you know he is going after that #1 spot.

Your hosts are as real as they come in this episode. Tears, laughs and a variety of emotions are displayed front and center in an episode that could be seen as a life time in the making. Dave did his usual Dave thing and brought on two secret guests to talk about what Josh's medal meant to them. Who are you they ask? non other than Josh Kerrs parents. 

Enjoy the longest (90 min) Sit & Kick episode brought to you by your two favorite hosts that plan to do track differently & rewrite history. 

Listen now!!

To podium in the Mens 1500m will be capable for a majority of this field which makes for those three spots even more exciting. Dave goes one by one through the field listing PRs, history and bios that will put you ahead of the competition in knowing who to root for and why. The second host of this podcast, Josh Kerr representing United Kingdom, toes the line at 4:40am PST Saturday morning in the Olympic 1500m Final.

Stats:

3 UK athletes in the Mens 1500m Final

3 of the contenders (4 including your better host Josh Kerr) in this final have been on the Sit & Kick Podcast: Cole Hocker, Olli Hoare, Jake Wightman. (we own 25% of this field. kidding)

0 athletes in the Tokyo Final qualified for the 2016 Rio Final. For comparison in Rio 2016, 8 of the 12 finalists were also in the final for London 2012

11 of the 13 athletes in the final have 1500m Personal Bests in the year 2021

Kate & Dave set the scene for one of the most anticipated games in modern history. As a viewer you are prepared for a spectacle of an event. As a Sit & Kick fan you are in for a great episode that will make those moments as a viewer even better. Can you believe that?

Kate & Dave deep dive into the distance events and give you every reason to root for the people they mention. From women 800m to Mens 10,000 your hosts break down their favorites, their anticipation and their emotions before the oval takes over the Olympic Games. 

Listen now to a one of a kind, super great episode of the Sit & Kick Podcast.

P.S if it sounds like Dave is in an empty room, he is....

K & D

Your hosts couldn't stay away. Technically in their "podcasting off season", your hosts gear up for major championships & major opportunities though the summer. However, they needed to give the people (you) what they want by recapping the past trial experiences. Dave, the 5k guy himself, made the United States Olympic Trials Final over 1500m. Josh, the bad man himself, won the British Athletic Olympic Trials over 1500m. With the experience came emotions, gratitude & focus for whats ahead. Your hosts break down their individual championships & what went on in both the preparation for those moments & the moments themselves. 

This bonus episode is one of a kind as both hosts are oddly kind to one another in honoring the hard work & tactics that it took to get to the point where they are at today. However don't be deceived, banter was surely had. 

Key Notes:

Dave & a secret speedy co-host will come on to the podcast at the end of the month to build anticipation for the games. 

An exclusive lawn chair shirt will drop very, VERY soon.

J&D

How your hosts have such beautiful and hilarious girlfriends is beyond them. The Banter Babes come onto the podcast and do more than just normal damage as your hosts are exposed as some of the weirdest and proudest boyfriends on the circuit. Josh Kerr gets set up for a hilarious story by Larimar and Olivia announces how she feels about all Daves romantic talk through every episode. We added the good ol' "Explicit" tag to this episode because well, romance and love can be a bit explicit at times. 

This is a great end to a phenomenal season of the Sit & Kick Podcast. When your hosts return to podcast action their Olympic Trials will be concluded, Tokyo 2020 will be concluded and the future of Sit & Kick will be bright as ever. Follow your hosts Olympic journey over their individual instagrams @dmribich & @Joshhkerr. 

Thank YOU!  As listeners you purchased product, submitted hilarious banter & kept the great name of being the best community of fans.

During his senior year at Wisconsin, Morgan McDonald had an undefeated NCAA Championship year winning Cross Country, Indoor and Outdoor titles. This Youtube sensation is a 2x World Championship qualifier while representing Australia and his making his name known for a bid selection in the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. 

In this episode a ton is covered but lets start with the title. It sounds like a clickbait title but as it stands your hosts are soon to step up to the 5k where Morgan McDonald is faster. Who knows, maybe Morgan gave your hosts a few pointers. Later in the episode, the game that your host David Ribich created was a game of intellect. We won't spoil anything but your other host Josh Kerr did in fact face off against the Aussie in a battle of wits. For the #BanterBowl Morgan showed only his best qualities as stories unfold and banter is had. 

Listen now to an episode that dropped a day early because a fan named Charlie Venmoed Morgan money for us to drop the episode. enjoy!

April fools day is all about the laughs, as is this podcast. Comedic, insightful and spontaneous bantering between two hosts that consider themselves “friends.” The unofficial official holiday of the sit and kick podcast is in fact April Fools. Not because they partake in the festivities but because the world partakes in a day of #Banter!

In all seriousness this episode is titled “The Future of Sit & Kick” because of the announcements made throughout this episode. Big things coming to hopefully make a big difference within the sport of track and field!

Your hosts promised a season of professionals...well they lied. Cole Hocker is the only athlete in NCAA History to double back and win the mile and 3k, he broke the NCAA Indoor Mile Record and is now #2 all time in that event (3:50.55). He ran 3:56, 3:53 (meet record) and 7:46 in the span of 24 hours. Sounds pretty professional to us! 

Goldie Hocks touches on a variety of topics including his championship mindset, their grueling Ben Thomas Warm up and his future plans in the NCAA and beyond. Not only that but he survives the BanterBowl with your hosts and even comes out ahead of Josh Kerrs Game Segment. This is an episode that continues the streak of excellence for the Sit and Kick Podcast. Not because your hosts are funny, attractive and have perfect podcast voices but because the guest once again delivers a memorable episode. 

Be on the look out for some HUGE Announcements with the Sit and Kick Podcast! Don't forget to leave a 6-Star review wherever you listen!

Listen now to this unedited, explicit, raw emotion episode. Sorry moms! Your hosts left it all out there on the mic in this one. They covered the conversation from this past weekends race, good and bad! The race was recently put on by Sound Running where Josh Kerr walked away with the win and David Ribich well, he is still working for the "when". Your hosts talked about the olympic year as a whole and the race schedule moving forward. Personality and performance are showcased in this bonus episode!

Running beef and rivalries were a trend amongst fan submitted questions and they were certainly talked about to the fullest extent.  More than a few dozen of your questions were answered in this bonus episode! Enjoy, leave a review and keep on kickin'

The hot topic of Marc Scott continues! Most recently Marc Scott ran 27:10 in the 10,000m becoming the #2 Brit all time in the event. However a few days before that he was a getting and giving #banter with your boys on the Sit and Kick Podcast. 

This episode can be described as hilariously insightful, competitive and full of #banter. Your hosts inquire about the beginning of Mad Marcs career and get caught up to the present moment where he is gunning for multiple Olympic Standards. In your hosts game for Marc he delivers his predictions for the UK Mens Olympic Team in the 800m, 1500m, 3000mSC, 5000m & 10,000m. Oh, and did we say that game was BEFORE the #banterbowl? This episode will get you laughing!

Bryce Hoppel, an Olympic Hopeful, is fresh off his 1:44 indoor 800m performance, placing him #2 all time for Americans. With breakthroughs announcers ask, "What are you going to do next?" Some athletes say Disneyland, some athletes say buy a house. What does Bryce Hoppel say? "I'm going to the Sit and Kick Podcast!" 

Your boys are back for the first guest episode of season 4. Bryce brought the Banter, Josh brought the challenging jabs and David brought the snacks. This episode has a wide variety of moods from roasts on your hosts to Dave deep diving into what the natural transition of confidence can be. The highs and the lows.

Josh invents a new game on the podcast where the guest must give the first word that comes to mind for a pro running group, the word MUST be non athletic related. Although this game wasn't in the #BanterBowl, it was surely banter. One response Bryce gave was "Thats a pro team?" find out who that team!

Dont forget to follow us over social media, don't forget to rate us. We would literally just be talking to ourselves without you.

Your favorite running hosts are back and boy..They are #banterish as ever! They cover the last 6 months in just over 60 minutes. 

Presently it seems as though the world is turning around Verification, Gamestop and Craig Engles beef. That is covered and more. 

All though this episode is without a against it is everything you need for entertainment. Run with this episode, cook with this episode or prepare for a fight with this episode. It will have you feeling all types of ways. We expect the feelings of: Motivation, Inspiration and Joy will come from this episode. 

Also included in this episode is the conversation of a paid position. Looking to be apart of the crew? let us know!

Your hosts Sit and Kick it with one of the most relevant names in NCAA Track and Field. Teare, a 4th year at Oregon, recently ran 5000m in 13:18 at "The Track Meet". That time automatically qualified him for the Olympic Trials. Off the track, your hosts turn Cooper Teare into Blooper Teare. They dug for all the funny, weird and somewhat appropriate past. 

Collegiate eligibility, agents, professional teams and his future plans started the podcast off hot. It then got hotter when Cooper survived the Banter Bowl.  Banter that ranged from Dave and Busters to NCAA Final Clusters. A Pre SZN episode that will ultimately get you hyped for Season IV.

!*WATCH THESE RACES LIVE ON RUNNERSPACE 12/4/2020*!

With the Olympic Qualifying Window opening December 1st your hosts Josh Kerr, David Ribich and Morgan Mcdonald chat up a storm around the upcoming 10,000m and 5,000m competitions happening this weekend. In a rare preseason episode this casual educational coverage is an opportunity to familiarize yourself with familiar faces before the races kick off tomorrow night. (12/4) 

Your three hosts broke down the fields and built up the anticipation for one of the first events within the Olympic window. You can watch the races live on Runnerspace. go to @soundrunning on instagram to get the watch links, results and heats of "The Track Meet"

This is a fun laugh of an episode and a good chat for the boys!

As always this episode is a laugh, this time, it's courtesy of Luke Mathews; an Australian Olympian and Common Wealth Games Medalist. Mathews is a Under Armour Athlete and currently prepping for the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. Your hosts ask the tough borderline, occasionally questionable questions that make the #banterbowl and every episode unique. 

This episode has its fair share of seriousness that cover topics from The Olympic Games to NDAs and contracts within the professional track and field circuit. The Sit and Kick podcast wouldn't be the same woutout a few laughs that happen frequently. These mates are acquaintances and competitors alike.

Do you need a way to summarize Stephanie Bruce? Here it is: Bad A** Runner, Bad A** Business woman and Bad A** Mom. 

Stephanie Bruce recently finished 6th in the Olympic Trials for the Marathon in February. Fast forward a few months, she ran a personal best of 31:34 in the 10,000m. From being a mother of two boys to handling the Sit and Kick boys in the Banter Bowl. Stephanie Bruce knows how to deal with toddlers. Tons of knowledge, insight and entertainment offered in this episode. 

Kids get into Harvard or Olympic Gold for yourself?

Who wins in a half marathon?

Road Racing or Track Racing?

A six person podcast episode just means six times the banter! 

Your hosts dive into the hottest topic of track and field right now. On Athletic Club! With the presence of the newly developed team, Josh and David learn what their program is all about first hand. From individual goals and team goals to worst Catan player and more.  This newly minted team has plenty of banter to spit over the Sit and Kick Podcast.

Learn what On Athletic Club is all about while genuinely getting some personalities along the way!

BanterBowl: 

Notable Guest Banter:

J&D

Did your question make the cut? Of course it did. Your hosts didn't exclude any. Even the crazy ones, the ones with a little more audacity were given a slot in the episode 

Josh and David take a step back from the regular scheduled program and instead dive deep into real conversations with each other. USADA/whereabouts, race mentality, advice for younger athletes and more are discussed in this episode. The entire episode was driven by the submission of the Sit and Kick community with the questions YOU submitted. In a unique episode, be apart of the conversation and listen for your question being answered. Like what you hear? lets do this again! 

BanterBowl:

"You are only given a baseball bat, 10 year kids in bicycle helmets swarm you, how many can you take out before you are overran?"

"Josh how did it feel to lead a race at the Big Friendly?"

"Runner who talks the most crap?"

Love,

Dani Jones has an array of qualities that suited her as a guest for the Sit and Kick Podcast. To start, she is fast. Three time NCAA Champion fast. She even won the international mile at the Pre Classic. Secondly, she is a professional on and off the track. She presents herself with purpose and drive to be the best human she can be.

Lastly, and most importantly. She can take and deliver heat. Dani Jones answers the question of Jenny Simpson or Emma Coburn, if women should run 8k for cross country and more. 

A fan favorite moment will definitely be where she stabs back at your host Josh Kerr by questioning the origin of the name "Sit and Kick".

This is worth a listen, share and conversation for your next run!

Give us a good review so we can keep bringing you great content!

Back & Banterish as ever! 

Season 3 is kicked off with a fellow Scotsman, Jake Wightman. 

Jake Wightman is the Scottish record holder for the 1500m, Commonwealth and European bronze medalist in 2018 and all-time scaredy cat after watching Pet Sematary. 

Your hosts covered a variety of topics with their first guest of a season. Ranging from structure of Uni, Highland games, a Scottish quiz, and what Jake was thinking driving to Las Vegas at the speed of sound. 

Banter Bowl Highlights:

"What is the race weakness of the other?" David asking Josh and Jake

"Driving a bit fast to Vegas were you Jake?" Josh to Jake

"Scary movies aren't your thing are they? What happened after you watched Pat Sematary?" David to Jake

Sit back and Kick it with the first episode of Season III

From University of Missouri-Kansas City to New Mexico to Rio to London and beyond!

Your hosts David Ribich and fellow Lobo Josh Kerr sit and kick back in a casual conversation with their first Olympian, Courtney Frerichs. Courtney is an NCAA record holder, American record holder, Olympian and World Runner-Up in the Steeplechase. Her list of accolades is longer than the chipotle receipt your hosts get after a workout. 

Courtney takes your hosts through the honest journey of her athletic experience and the decisions that were made to help cultivate an already astounding young career. Winning her first NCAA title, making the 2016 Olympic team for the United States, signing with Nike-Bowerman and then earning silver on the world stage in London 2017.  

The episode closed with a special segment unique to this episode called, "Frerichs Favorites" where Courtney had to choose just one option out of two. Courtney did it as truthful and rapidly as she could. 

Some teaser questions were:

World Silver Medal or American Record

Proposal at NCAA Cross Country Championships or Winning NCAA Cross Country Team Title

Joe Franklins (Coach of UNM) Favorite Athlete: Josh Kerr or Courtney Frerichs

Need something to listen to for just under an hour?

Your hosts are welcomed by a far more hilarious spokesperson on this episode of Sit and Kick. Josh and David can barely contain the comedic qualities of Allie Ostrander but they do their best. In this episode, the three talk about their inclusion in the Brooks Corporation, broadcasters and their comments on physical appearances, the custom pair of spikes Allie is working on for Steeplechase, Allies build up to 2021 and who her least favorite teammate is. Believe it or not, all that is jam packed into this fifty minute episode and more!

Allie is an experienced Sit and Kicker and brought some banter of her own that left Josh speechless. Enjoy this episode of a hilarious individual your two hosts are lucky enough to be teammates with.
