In episode sixty-one of The Running Effect, I have the great privilege of speaking with Lex and Leo Young. While I'm sure 99% of you are familiar with them, for those that aren't, Lex and Leo are two of the greatest high school distance runners in history. And they're only juniors (:
Following in the footsteps of their older brother Nico, Lex and Leo run for Newbury Park High School. Newbury Park is debatably the greatest high school distance program ever. Since freshman year, Lex and Leo have completely rewritten the record books. If I were to write a list of their accomplishments I would run out of space on this post. The scary thing is that they're only juniors and have a whole nother year!
In this episode, we dive-deep into their start in the sport of running, all things Newbury Park, handling pressure from the outside world, future goals, and so much more! We also do a little twin trivia to find out which twin knows the other one the best! This episode is a really fun one and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. We also answer all your fun listener questions. They span from who would win in bare-knuckle boxing to how they balance school and running. Make sure to follow along with Lex and Leo this next year as they rewrite the history books in a dominant fashion.

0:39.3 | I speak today with Lex and Leo Young, who are twins and attend Newberry Park High School in California. |
0:45.6 | For those who aren't familiar with Lex and Leo, which I'm sure, like 99% of you are familiar |

1:00.6 | we kind of go across their career, how they got started in the sport of running, what it's been |
1:05.2 | like having Nico Young as their older brother, how they have dealt with the pressure of being |

1:17.0 | one better and also answer your unique listener questions. So I don't really have too big of an |
1:23.0 | introduction for this one. I guess the episode speaks for itself. We just cover a lot of topics, |
