Episode 5 - Corbin Talley and The Boys in the Boat

Weber State head cross country and track coach Corbin Talley is stalwart member of Utah’s running community, and he chose the book we are reading in April - The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown. In this episode we talk about his background and why running appealed to him, how that changed when he began coaching and what he learned about teamwork and leadership from a book about rowing. This is Amy’s favorite sports book, and Coach Talley shares how the book helped him navigate personal challenges and coaching puzzles. This book illustrates why individual excellence doesn’t always lead to team success, and how putting the team first can transform every aspect of competition. Join us in reading this gritty, inspiring true story!
