The Running Effect Podcast

One of the biggest up-and-coming stars in the country, Daniel Skandera, comes on the podcast today to share his story!

Daniel has one of the most INSANE resumes as a junior in high school.

He's a 4x USATF Junior Olympic National Champion. He's also set over FIFTY age-group world records ranging from 600m-5000m and ages 5-12.

He was 14th at 2023 Footlocker South Regionals, but the 1st underclassman and 3rd best non-senior.

He went onto to become the 2023 RunningLane XC Champion as a sophomore.

Daniel returns to the 2024 Foot Locker meet looking for a little redemption.

He holds PRs of 4:10 (1600m), 8:53 (3200m), and 15:05 (XC).

In today's conversation, Daniel takes me through his insane career, how he got started in the sport at such a young age, attacking every world age group record, his progression in high school, what making Foot Locker would mean to him andso much more!

This one is packed with fun stories and great insights. Don't miss it!
