Chat with a Pro: Nikki Hiltz

Welcome to Chat with a Pro - a monthly series on Relay that will drop once a month on Fridays. 
This series is hosted by Lindsey Hein and Laura Thweatt and for our first guest everyone on Relay wanted to get in on the discussion!
Lindsey, Laura, Kara Goucher, Tommie Runz, and Marcus Brown all talk with newly minted American record holder in the mile (4:16) Nikki Hiltz! Nikki is headed to Budapest soon to compete in the World Championships after winning their first US title in the 1500m.
Nikki runs for Lululemon and runs with Mike Smith's group in Flagstaff. They are a champion for inclusivity and Nikki is the first openly non-binary USATF Champion. 
In this conversation we talk about winning the national title and being an American record holder heading to the World Championships. We also talk about their training group and have a candid conversation about their voice and passion for being a role model in the LGBTQ+ community. 
Thank you Nikki for joining us!!
