That Time I Chatted with Aaron Brown
On this episode of Teeter Talks, I had the distinct pleasure of speaking with the exceptional Aaron Brown, a celebrated athlete whose remarkable achievements continue to inspire. Known for his role as the lead leg in the Canadian men's 4x100 relay team that claimed gold at this year’s Paris Olympics, Aaron has etched his name in track and field history. A specialist in the 100 and 200 meters, Aaron’s impressive career includes a silver medal in 2020, a bronze in 2016, and a 2022 World Championship title. He is one of only two Canadians to ever break both the 10-second and 20-second barriers in the 100m and 200m events. Aaron’s unmatched speed and relentless work ethic set him apart, but it's his dedication to leadership and teamwork that truly resonates. In this conversation, Aaron offers powerful insights into what it takes to lead with heart, collaborate with purpose, and achieve sustained success. Whether you’re an athlete, coach, or professional in any field, you’ll find Aaron’s wisdom and perspective a source of inspiration.
Join us as we dive into these topics:
- Journey to the 2024 Paris Olympics, the moments before his victory, and what followed.
- Reflecting on Donovan Bailey’s reaction to Aaron’s gold medal win and his impact.
- Living into his gift of speed, looking at Aaron’s transition to track after playing multiple sports.
- Aaron’s take on leadership, filling gaps, and guiding the next generation.
- What’s next for Aaron as he juggles family life and prepares for the 2028 L.A. Olympics.
It was a true privilege to speak with Aaron Brown. His dedication, both on and off the track, is truly inspiring. Beyond his athletic achievements, Aaron's drive and leadership are remarkable, and I can't wait to cheer him on at the 2028 Olympics.
