Ep. 2 - Dana Giordano

Road to the Trials

Dana Giordano is a professional runner for the B.A.A. and Adidas. She's a 4:08 1500m and 15:18 5K runner who ran track and cross-country at Dartmouth College and hopes to compete at the 2021 Olympic Track & Field Trials. In April, Dana added another line to her impressive resume: host of the More Than Running podcast. Five years ago Dana finished one spot away from the qualifying from the 2016 Olympic Trials and she is eager to make it happen this year. As we discuss in this episode, Dana is excited to see which event, the 1500m or 5k, turns out be her main race heading into the summer. We also take a deep dive into her recent foot injury that caused her to cruise through New Balance Grand Prix last week.
