Ask Heather MacLean, who is an 800-meter/1500-meter specialist, which event is her favorite, and she’ll tell you it’s neither. Her favorite is actually a relay, the 4x400 meters, which
she hardly ever gets to race.
But the choice makes sense. She loves being around her teammates, her family, her coaches, everyone who has helped her get where she is.

These days, MacLean, 25, is part of Team New Balance Boston, holding a job pro runner that 10 years ago she didn’t know existed. She’s won two out of her last three races with ease. On February 13 in Staten Island, New York, she won the 1500 meters at the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix in 4:06.32, blazing past Cory McGee by running the final 200 meters in 30.92 seconds. Many in the running world think MacLean has a solid chance at making the Olympic team for Tokyo this summer.
