Evan Jager Twitter Interview
Evan Jager Twitter Interview

If you missed the Twitter interview with Evan Jager, have not fear, because you can read it in it's entirety below. The American steeplechase prodigy answered a handful of our questions ranging from what he hopes to do at the Olympics, to who his hair role models are. We even learned that he gets pumped up with some tunes from DMX. Let's hope that when it comes to his race in London he indeed turns it into a "party, up in here."
Reppin the USA during the opening ceremonies was awesome. People were chanting USA! USA! the entire time we were walking...

Training has been going incredibly. W/Os have been really easy since Monaco. That race took place of our last big hit...

All of my W/Os since then have been simply about maintenance
