Christian Taylor, the 2011 IAAF World Outdoor Champion in the Triple Jump, is set to join The Runaround on ESPN on Monday, June 18th.

Taylor, a former University of Florida Gator, also won silver at the 2012 World Indoor Championship earlier this year, finishing behind his UF teammate Will Claye. Christian recently won the triple jump at the Prefontaine Classic, and then finished 2nd at the Diamond League meet in Oslo. He goes into the US Olympic Trials along with Claye as the overwhelming favorites to make the London Olympic team.

Taylor will be the 4th World Champion to be interview by The Runaround, joining the ranks of Jenny Simpson, Chaunte Lowe, and Ashton Eaton. Taylor is also celebrating his birthday today.

FYI, due to a flat tire we couldn't get Christian on the phone during the show. The interview was recorded after the show, and should be up soon on www.therunaroundradio.com.
