Tinman Elite's Sam Parsons Explains Why Everyone Is Running So Fast In 2023

"That's the nature of most professional athletes. They believe whenever they see someone else do it, that they can do it too. That's a snowball effect...Everyone is riding the wave of 'There's no reason we can't run as fast as these people this past weekend.'"
CITIUS MAG European correspondent David McCarthy sits down with Tinman Elite's Sam Parsons ahead of the Stockholm Diamond League.
In this sitdown interview, the lads discuss:
- Being a 'veteran' on the professional track and field scene
- His reaction to seeing other athletes running so fast
- The effect of the World Ranking system on everyone's improvement
- How he caught his big break as a professional runner
- The importance of putting your success immediately behind you
- Looking ahead to the Paris Olympics

Such a great interview to listen to. Love listening to both Sam and David. They interact and bounce off of each other well to make an insightful and interesting conversation

Got to give the camera man some props too. He's on it. He had to make some adjustments on the fly, but he never put the camera down in a long live shot.
