The impact of making the Paris Olympics as part of Team USA’s squad still resonates with Allie Wilson.
She punched her ticket as part of a chaotic women’s 800m final in Eugene last year as part of a whirlwind season where she also signed a contract with Nike — part of a sign that things were changing and the pauses in life would soon become rarer.
But in a fast sport, the time away from the track feels even faster and 2025’s long season on the track has wrapped and road races now dominate calendar.
Wilson spoke with me last month after a frantic Fifth Avenue Mile in New York City and touched on several points as she caught her breath — including her move up to the 1,500m (and mile) — and what a post-Olympic mindset means for the chase to be healthy and consistent.
