Episode 285: Jessica Hull – 4X NCAA Champion & Australian Record Holder X 3

Jess Hull is a 4-time NCAA Champion from Australia who ran for the Oregon Ducks throughout her collegiate career.

Signed with Nike after giving up her 5th year of eligibility and is now coached by Pete Julian.  In 2019 she made the World Championships team in the 1500m for Australia and this summer she set 3 new Australian Records: 5,000m (14:43.80), 1500m (4.00.42), 3000m (8:36.03) and was officially selected for the Olympic team for Australia.
Jess ran under coach Maurica Powell (former guest on the show) for three of her four years in Oregon and in this episode we get to hear about that relationship and also get to hear about when she won the 1500m at the 2018 NCAA championships.
