The Rundown

Tenaciously consistent, time in, time out.

Coached by one coach for his first two years, resulting in one of the best youngsters in the State, and a D2 3200m title.

Embracing a new mentor his junior year, taking in those lessons and applying them to more championships. In cross, shedding the field over the final 1.1 on his path to a 10+ second victory, then winning the 1600m at State.

Facing a serious bike accident that would’ve left a mere mortal sidelined, TJ put it on the line for his team in a regional win, then stepped on the MIS podium for one of his three All-States.

Taking his talents to Chicago, Millrose, Nike Nationals, Brooks PR. Facing fields of scary competitors and taking in historic venues. Placing high, running fast, and establishing himself as one of the nation’s better runners.

Burdened by illness all spring, yet still pulling away from the D2 1600m field.

College coach and recruiter moving to a new place. Making the wise, adult decision to change and train in Boulder.

In a world of change, expect the tenacity and consistency to continue.
