Milesplit Allstars Feature Athlete of the Week: Austin Brower Kyle Perry May 01, 2013

Austin Brower is a Junior distance runner from West Lake High School. He has had a very impressive season so far, improving nearly every time he steps on the track. This past weekend he ran a double that very few in the history of the state have, first running 4:15 in the 1600m and then coming back and running 1:55 in the 800m. We chose him as the feature athlete of the week, and had a chance to catch up with Austin, see what doing that’s working so well, and get to know him a little better. Here’s our conversation.

This week’s featured athlete of the week is one of Park City's stars, Ali Walker. Recently she signed to run at the University of Wyoming under the tutelage of Bryan Berryhill. While some distance runner do not tend to race a lot in winter for fear of over racing, Walker has run a few select races to help shake off the dust and gear up for her final year wearing red and white. Recently Milesplit Utah had a chance to catch up with her and ask her about the upcoming season and her college selection.
