This interview, managed by the Shoe addicts, is a lot of fun. RunBlogRun asked Vashti about how she competes, her training, her favorite music, her social media presense and her interest in fashion. What we found? A confident young woman who is a fierce competitor, and lots of fun to speak with!
Special thanks to the IAAF and LOC for setting up the Ispace concept, which is a modified press conference approach.
