Axel Nzi ’28: Podcast Host with A Mile. A Minute.

Axel Nzi

A Mile. A Minute. is the daily intersection of running news, shoes, food, photos, deep dive journalism, audio and the culture of the sport.

Projects:

  • Host of the show, Axel’s Personal Best
  • Interview the top pro athletes and coaches about a journey that explores what drives their competitive mindset
  • On-site media coverage
  • Attended USATF nationals as part of the media press
  • Hosted my own segment, A Minute from the Track, where I interviewed the stars from each day of the event

I learned about the importance of making meaningful connections. My ability to storytell is greatly appreciated by my guests because my unique experience as a current athlete allows me to highlight narratives not typically covered by today's media. I loved attending USAs! It was the first time in 35 years that it was hosted in New York, and it was great interacting face to face with many athletes I look up to!
