Tonight’s (Tuesday night’s) Grand Blue Mile at the Drake Relays will feature the return of 2017 winner Katie Follett. The former Washington standout will compete in the USA One Mile Road Championship. It is her first race since the birth of her son seven months ago.

Several years ago motherhood was considered the end of a career but that is no longer the case.

Follett says it is possible to have a track career and a family.
