Courtney Frerichs Exits Bowerman Track Club After Seven Years
The Olympic and World Championship silver medalist is the latest to leave the famed club
Courtney Frerichs became the latest casualty from the Bowerman Track Club, as the reigning Olympic silver medalist in the 3,000 meter steeplechase announced her departure from the club on New Year's Day after seven-successful seasons with the program.
The 30-year-old's decision follows the more recent exits of Grant Fisher, Elise Cranny and Cooper Teare, while Matt Centrowitz, Woody Kincaid and Marc Scott have also departed.
Frerichs commented that she remains in partnership with Nike and Garmin Running, though she has begun training with Puma-backed Alistair and Amy Cragg's team ahead of the U.S. Olympic Trials in June.
Frerichs is coming off a season where she did not reach the World Championships.
In 2022, she finished sixth in the 3,000 meter steeplechase at the World Championships and was third at the U.S. Championships.
She finished second at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 and followed with a career best 8:57.77 for the distance just a few short weeks later at the Prefontaine Classic.
Frerichs wrote: "This chapter has given me some of the greatest moments of my running career and some of the best relationships with teammates I will forever cherish."
