IAAF World Youth Championships: Meet Team USA!

Alexis Duncan

What are you looking forward to most about the trip?
I'm looking forward to another personal record, but better. I'm hoping to meet all of my competitors from all around the world and talk about how great we are and blessed to be able to be apart of the World Youth Championships.

How did it feel to receive all the sweet Team USA gear?
I felt soooooooooooo clean !!! I tried on everything ! It fit perfectly. I didn't want to take it off.

What have you been doing to prepare for the meet?
I'm not changing anything up. I just have shorter more intense practices than usual.

What’s life like at the training camp ?
It's fun here. I think the athletes make it even better. We're really bonding.

What are your goals going into World Youth?
My goals are to make it to the finals. Taking it step by step. I hope to put my name out there in the world so EVERYONE can know who ALEXIS DUNCAN is and what she is about.

Have you done any international MileSplit stalking of athletes you will be going up against?
No, I haven't stalked anybody . I don't go off times anymore. I just make sure I'm on my A-game at all times.
