26TH FLYING PIG MARATHON. ONLY HERE ON CHANNEL FIVE. WE WANT TO GET OVER TO THE FEMALE WINNER OF THE FULL MARATHON. SHE WENT DOWN FROM EXHAUSTION IN THIS HEAT, BUT SHE’S BACK. SHE’S HYDRATED AND SHE’S WITH ASHLEY KIRKLEN INTRODUCING US TO OLIVIA ANGER, 26, FROM BELLBROOK, OHIO. HI THERE ASH. HI, GUYS. THAT’S RIGHT. OLIVIA, YOU TOOK A BREAK. WE DON’T BLAME YOU ONE BIT. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR YOUR WIN HERE TODAY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. YEAH. HOW DOES IT FEEL? HOW DO YOU FEEL? I FEEL MUCH BETTER NOW. UM, I HAD A LITTLE BIT OF HEAT STROKE AT THE VERY END, BUT IT WAS JUST AN AMAZING FEELING TO BE ABLE TO WIN IN CINCINNATI IN FRONT OF SOME OF MY FRIENDS. AND FAMILY. SO. AND YOU NO STRANGER TO THIS? YOU RAN TRACK IN COLLEGE. YOU’RE FROM MINNESOTA. YOU’RE YOU’VE BEEN LIVING IN BELLBROOK AND ALSO YOU’RE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI AS AS A GRAD. WHAT WHAT DID YOU WHAT KIND OF MENTAL DID YOU TAP INTO TO FINISH THIS RACE? HERE IN THIS HEAT? UM. OH, THAT’S A GREAT QUESTION. I JUST SAID I WANTED TO FINISH BECAUSE I KNEW MY BOYFRIEND AND MY BEST FRIENDS WERE AT THE FINISH LINE WAITING FOR ME, SO I WANTED TO MAKE THEM PROUD. AND, UM, AND ALSO, I PUT IN A LOT OF HARD WORK. SO I JUST TRIED TO THINK OF ALL THE MILES THAT GOT ME TO THIS POINT, UM, AND HAVE FAITH THAT I COULD DO IT. YEAH, YOU DID IT IN ABOUT TWO HOURS AND 43 MINUTES AND SOME CHANGE THAT YOU HAVE A GOAL AND IF SO, WHAT WAS IT? YEAH. SO I WANTED TO FOCUS MORE ON PLACE RATHER THAN TIME. TODAY BECAUSE I KNEW THE CONDITIONS WERE GOING TO BE IDEAL FOR A PERSONAL BEST. SO I WAS HOPING TO BE AROUND OR UNDER 245, WHICH IS WHAT I DID. UM, BUT WITH THE HEAT AND THE HUMIDITY, YOU NEED TO BE CAREFUL BECAUSE THAT TAKES A HUGE TOLL ON YOUR TIME. SO I’M REALLY HAPPY WITH MY TIME CONSIDERING THE CONDITIONS TODAY. LAST YEAR WE INTERVIEWED CAITLIN KEENE, WHO WAS HERE IN THE WINNER’S CIRCLE AFTER WINNING HER THIRD FLYING PIG. DID THAT INSPIRE YOU AT ALL AND HAVE YOU, UH, KEPT UP WITH HER JOURNEY AND WHAT DID THAT INSPIRE YOU TO DO? YES, I THINK CAITLIN IS SUPER INSPIRING, WINNING THREE TIMES ON A VERY DIFFICULT COURSE. UM, SHE ALSO IS JUST A REALLY GREAT, UH. SHE’S A REALLY GREAT FACE FOR RUNNING, FOR GETTING MORE WOMEN INTO THE SPORT. MAKE SURE EVERYONE KNOWS, NO MATTER YOUR PACE, YOU ARE A RUNNER. UM, SO I WANTED TO COME AND. REPRESENT CINCINNATI, AND I KNEW, NO, SHE COULDN’T BE HERE THIS YEAR, WHICH IS TOO BAD. BUT I WANTED TO MAKE SURE WE STILL HAD A FUN, COMPETITIVE RACE. AND SO I’M GLAD I GOT TO FOLLOW HER FOOTSTEP’S BECAUSE IT IS AN HONOR. UM, TAKING THE WIN AFTER EVERYTHING SHE’S DONE TO PROMOTE THE RACE AND PROMOTE WOMEN RUNNING. AND I’M SURE YOU MADE HER PROUD. ANY PLANS FOR ANY OTHER FUTURE MARATHONS? I DON’T KNOW, I HOPE I HAVE MANY IN THE FUTURE. I LOVE RUNNING, IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY. BRINGS A LOT OF JOY AT HOME. LIKE THIS. I DON’T KNOW WHAT MY NEXT ONE WILL BE YET, BUT HOPEFULLY ANOTHER FLYING PIG IN THE FUTURE. HOW ARE YOU GOING TO CELEBRATE FOOD? I’M GONNA GO GET SOME PANCAKES AT SLEEPY B. I HAD TO DELAY MY RESERVATION BECAUSE OF THE HEATSTROKE. BUT YES, I DEFINITELY WANT SOME FOOD BECAUSE I NEED TO FUEL UP AND RECOVER AFTER THE HARD EFFORT. TODAY, OLIVIA ANGER. CONGRATULATIONS. WE’RE GLAD THAT YOU’RE DOING WELL. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I REALLY APPRECIATE IT. YES. CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN. 26 YEAR OLD OLIVIA ANGER FROM BELLBROOK, OHIO. HERE, GUYS IN THE WINNER’S CIRCLE
