Running in the Real World. Taylor Bryson ran 16:05 for 5,000m as a Cal senior.
When Taylor Bryson ran PRs at every distance from 800m to 5,000m in 2012, her final season at the University of California-Berkeley, she wasn't ready to hang up her spikes. But with a best of 16:05 for 5,000m, sponsors weren't knocking down her door. Bryson had to get creative if she was going to continue to train -- and support herself -- after her graduation in May 2012 with a degree in interdisciplinary studies. Today, Bryson rents a house in the Berkeley Hills with four former Cal teammates and trains with the Bay Area Track Club under coaches Tom Kloos and Magdalena Lewy Boulet. Bryson holds part-time jobs at AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill and as a baby sitter for a family in Oakland, all while continuing to train. Here's how a typical week of training and working unfolds for Bryson as she readies herself for the summer racing season.
Once in Berkeley, Bryson runs on the trails or works out in the pool at Cal. The Balance Sheet. Steeple_Chase14 : And my weekend will consis... Running For My Life.
