Molly Seidel has started a YouTube channel
Her first video gives you a behind-the-scenes look at her trip to the New York City Marathon
Molly Seidel fans have another place where they can follow along with their favourite runner. The Tokyo Olympic bronze medallist has started her own YouTube channel, and her first video, which follows her during her trip to the New York City Marathon, is full of that goofy charm we’ve all come to know and love from Seidel, along with a few snot rockets.
Barely three months after her incredible third-place finish at the Tokyo Olympic Marathon, Seidel finished fourth at the 2021 New York City Marathon in 2:24:42. Her time broke the previous American course record of 2:25:53, set by Kara Goucher in 2008. She revealed after the race that she had fractured a few ribs during her build-up to New York, making her performance through the five boroughs even more outstanding.
“This was truly one of the most challenging marathon builds I’ve ever had to do — mentally and physically,” Seidel says in the video. “Just getting through the amount of pain, the de-motivation after the Olympics, dealing with the pressures that now come from being an Olympic medallist and the eyes on you.”
Seidel only has one video up so far, but anyone who wishes to follow her YouTube channel for updates can find it here.
