Jessica Kain is a professional 1500-meter runner, fitness model, and coach from Santa Cruz, California, who is quickly making a name for herself in the running world. After competing for San Diego State, Jessica has continued chasing big goals on the track while balancing modeling, coaching, and sharing her journey on social media. This season, everything started to click. Jessica entered her first USATF Outdoor Championships seeded 21st in the 1500m and finished sixth, while dropping her personal best to 

.21 (more than six seconds faster than her college PR). But Jessica's breakthrough didn't come overnight. She once considered walking away from professional running before deciding to give herself one more chance and go all in. Now, she's headed to Europe for her next stretch of racing. Carrie catches up with Jessica to talk about her breakthrough season, balancing life and running, growing up in an athletic family, and why she believes the 2028 LA Olympics could be within reach.
