640. Josette Norris Andrews, On Athletics Club Athlete

Published: May 11, 2023, 9 a.m.

"There was a lot of anticipation for this race, and I hope it lived up to everyone\u2019s standards!"

Josette Norris is on a hot streak on the track! The On-sponsored Jersey girl (who now lives in Boulder, CO) just won the 5000m race at On Track Fest (and ran a personal best of 14:43), and won the 1500m race at Penn Relays the weekend prior. In this conversation, Josette talks about what life is like as an On Athletics Club athlete, where she is coached by Dathan Ritzenhein. (Listen to Josette's previous appearance on the Ali on the Run Show \u2014 with now-husband and fellow pro Robby Andrews \u2014 here.)
