WATCH: KYA Summer XC Chat with Zach Long & Todd Williams


Two of The University of Tennessee's all-time best distance runners chatted with young athletes in Knoxville.

So we wanted to share this with you all on the front page of our site as well.

Zach Long was a state champion in cross country and track for Grainger High School. After he graduated in 2015, he went on to set school records at UT in the 5,000 and 3,000.

The man who had previously had the 5,000 meter run school record, Todd Williams, also joined the call to chat for close to an hour with coach Bobby Holcombe and his summer training group in East Tennessee.

Check out the advice, knowledge and stories they shared above.
