Die PUMA-Athletin besuchte unsere B\u00fcros in Herzogenaurach als letzte Etappe ihrer Europareise. Vielleicht war sie deshalb so entspannt? CATch Up unterhielt sich mit der charmanten und gut gelaunten US-amerikanischen Athletin \u00fcber ihren Bronzemedaillengewinn bei den Olympischen Spielen in Tokio, ihren R\u00fcckzug von den Weltmeisterschaften in Eugene, ihre Leidenschaft f\u00fcr das Laufen, ihre Ziele f\u00fcr den Rest des Jahres und ihre Vorliebe f\u00fcr Erdnussbutter-Sandwiches und die Elevator Boys.<\/span>\n<span class=\"textStyle_intro\">Scrollen Sie nach unten, um das vollst\u00e4ndige Interview zu lesen!<\/span>\n<\/div>\n   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- row text single -->\n<div class=\"gradientnone\">\n<div class=\"row rowSingleColumnWide spacing\">\n    <div class=\"col articleText\">\n        <div class=\"textStyle_quote\" ><p>Ich habe mir selbst und diesem Sport wirklich gro\u00dfe Ziele gesetzt.

Im Urlaub?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Es ist eine Kombination aus Tour und Urlaub. Wir sind hergekommen, um uns das anzusehen. <strong>UTMB (Ultramarathon)<\/strong> in Europa. Ich habe mich hier auch einer medizinischen Behandlung f\u00fcr meine H\u00fcfte unterzogen. Wir haben Salzburg und Genf besucht und konnten die Umgebung erkunden.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong> Was war bisher Ihr Highlight?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Ich muss sagen, dass der UTMB unglaublich war \u2013 ich war zum ersten Mal dort und es war wundersch\u00f6n und hat mir sehr, sehr viel Spa\u00df gemacht.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Du hast Bronze gewonnen bei den <strong>Olympischer Marathon 2021<\/strong>. Erinnerst du dich an den Moment, als dir klar wurde, dass du auf dem Podium stehen k\u00f6nntest? <\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Es war wirklich unglaublich und ein sehr schwieriges Rennen \u2013 es war sehr hei\u00df, und es gab zu dieser Zeit so viele Herausforderungen, was das Rennen w\u00e4hrend einer Pandemie und so weiter betraf. Als ich die Ziellinie \u00fcberquerte und Bronze gewann, war ich wie unter Schock. \u201cOh mein Gott, ich kann es nicht glauben.\u201d All die harte Arbeit und all die Anstrengungen, die ich unternommen hatte, um an diesen Punkt zu gelangen, zahlten sich wirklich aus, und ich versp\u00fcrte ein enormes Gef\u00fchl purer Freude.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Dieses Jahr haben Sie sich aufgrund einer Stressreaktion im Kreuzbein aus den Leichtathletik-Weltmeisterschaften in Eugene zur\u00fcckgezogen. Wie f\u00fchlen Sie sich jetzt?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Deshalb bin ich gerade hier, ich habe Probleme mit meiner H\u00fcfte und meinem unteren R\u00fccken. Es ist schwierig, wieder in Schwung zu kommen, aber jetzt geht es mir besser. PUMA unterst\u00fctzt mich dabei, wieder gesund zu werden und sicherzustellen, dass ich wieder auf die Beine komme. Ich bin sehr dankbar, bei einem Unternehmen zu sein, das das tut.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Im Juli hast du dein Deb\u00fct im Trailrunning gegeben \u2013 war das etwas, das du schon lange geplant hattest?\u00a0<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Oh Gott, nein. (lacht) Im Grunde bin ich aus Spa\u00df ein Trail-Rennen gelaufen. Mein Freund macht Trail-Rennen, also hat er die l\u00e4ngere Version davon gemacht. Es sollte eigentlich in der Woche nach der Weltmeisterschaft stattfinden, aber da ich nicht schnell laufen konnte, dachte ich mir, ich gehe es einfach. Ich hatte mich f\u00fcr das Rennen angemeldet und dachte, ich k\u00f6nnte es vielleicht machen. Anscheinend ist man auch beim Trailrunning ziemlich gut, wenn man nur geht. Ich bin definitiv eher eine Stra\u00dfenl\u00e4uferin, ich mag keine Abw\u00e4rtsstrecken. Alle sprinten den Berg hinunter, und ich muss die H\u00fcgel hinunterrutschen. Ich bevorzuge Stra\u00dfen und w\u00fcrde jederzeit einen Stra\u00dfenmarathon einem Trailmarathon vorziehen!<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Welche Schuhe hast du getragen?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Ich trug ein altes Paar PUMA-Flats, einfach normale Stra\u00dfenschuhe. Das war das erste Paar PUMA-Schuhe, das ich jemals online gekauft habe. Ich h\u00e4tte Trailschuhe tragen sollen, aber ich dachte mir: \u201cNa ja, ich gehe ja sowieso nur spazieren.\u201d.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>H\u00f6rst du beim Laufen \u00fcberhaupt Musik?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Das kommt darauf an. Wenn ich trainiere, h\u00f6re ich normalerweise keine Musik. Aber wenn ich alleine laufe, h\u00f6re ich manchmal Musik, etwas Rhythmisches und Einfaches. Ich habe das Gef\u00fchl, dass ich am besten laufe, wenn ich an nichts denke, wenn ich einfach nur im Moment bin.<br\/>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"col articleText\">\n        <div ><br\/><strong>Was ist deine Lieblingslaufstrecke?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Meine Lieblingslaufstrecke befindet sich direkt vor meinem Haus in Flagstaff. Ich kann direkt aus meiner Hintert\u00fcr hinauslaufen und habe dort kilometerlange Wege und einen tollen 10-Meilen-Weg, der direkt um mein Haus herumf\u00fchrt. Er verl\u00e4uft durch Kiefernw\u00e4lder und ist sehr ruhig.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Wie oft laufen Sie? <\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: W\u00e4hrend der Marathonsaison trainiere ich jeden Tag morgens 90 Minuten und abends 45 Minuten. An den Wochenenden mache ich dann 2-3 Stunden lange L\u00e4ufe.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Hast du vor einem Wettkampf eine besondere Routine?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Ich bin nicht wirklich abergl\u00e4ubisch. Aber ich mache bestimmte Dinge, um vorbereitet zu sein, wie zum Beispiel zu einer bestimmten Zeit zu essen, meine gesamte Ausr\u00fcstung zusammenzusuchen usw.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Ich sch\u00e4tze, Essen bedeutet eine Menge Shakes?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Nein, eigentlich mag ich das nicht so gerne. Normalerweise esse ich ein Sandwich mit Erdnussbutter und Marmelade (SO LECKER!) \u2013 ich kaue mein Essen lieber.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Wie motivierst du dich selbst, um lange Strecken zu laufen? <\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Ich behalte meine Ziele im Blick. Ich habe mir selbst und diesem Sport wirklich gro\u00dfe Ziele gesetzt. Und da ich wei\u00df, dass die Olympischen Spiele 2024 in Paris nur noch zwei Jahre entfernt sind, versuche ich, alles zu tun, um so gut wie m\u00f6glich zu sein. Gleichzeitig liebe ich es einfach, rauszugehen und zu laufen. Es f\u00e4llt mir nicht einmal schwer, mich zu motivieren, ich m\u00f6chte es wirklich tun. Ich werde heute Abend wahrscheinlich nicht vor 20 oder 21 Uhr nach M\u00fcnchen zur\u00fcckkommen, aber sobald ich zur\u00fcck bin, werde ich auf jeden Fall laufen gehen. Ich sch\u00e4tze mich sehr gl\u00fccklich, dass ich das beruflich machen kann.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Haben Sie Tipps f\u00fcr Menschen, die mit dem Training f\u00fcr einen Marathon beginnen m\u00f6chten? <\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Die gr\u00f6\u00dfte Herausforderung, selbst wenn man ganz von vorne anf\u00e4ngt, besteht darin, es einfach jeden Tag zu tun. Es muss nicht besonders weit sein, aber man muss konsequent sein und es sich zur Gewohnheit machen. Ich glaube, je konsequenter man etwas tut, desto mehr Motivation bekommt man daraus. Viele Menschen glauben, dass man motiviert sein muss, um konsequent zu sein. Aber ich denke, wenn man etwas tut, auch wenn man keine Lust dazu hat, entwickelt man irgendwann die Motivation und die Liebe daf\u00fcr. Ehrlich gesagt geht es darum, die Schuhe anzuziehen, aus der T\u00fcr zu gehen und zu sagen: \u201cHey, ich komme erst in 15 oder 20 Minuten zur\u00fcck\u201c, bis man an den Punkt kommt, an dem man sich zur\u00fccklehnt und sagt: \u201dIch komme erst in 90 Minuten zur\u00fcck\u201c, indem man nur kleine Schritte macht.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Was sind Ihre Pl\u00e4ne f\u00fcr den Rest des Jahres?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>Molly: Wenn ich in die USA zur\u00fcckkehre, werde ich wieder voll mit dem Training beginnen. Ich hoffe, im November den Halbmarathon in Boston und im Dezember wieder einige 10-km-L\u00e4ufe hier in Europa absolvieren zu k\u00f6nnen.

When I came over the finish line and got bronze, it was like a sense of shock. \u201cOMG, I can not believe it.\u201d All the hard work and all the struggles you took to get to this point really came out, I experienced an enormous sense of pure joy.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;This year you declared yourself out of the World Athletics Championships in Eugene due to a stress reaction in your sacrum.

(laughs) Basically I walked a trail race for fun. My boyfriend does trail races, so he was doing the longer version of it. It was supposed to be the week after Worlds, but as I was not able to run fast, I was just thinking that I\u2019d walk it. I had the race entry and I thought I might do it. Apparently, even if you only walk, you still do pretty good at trail racing. I am definitely more of a road runner, I don\u2019t like the downhills. Everyone is sprinting down and I have to slide down the hills. I prefer the roads and I would take a road marathon over trails any day!\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;What shoes did you wear?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: I wore an old pair of PUMA flats, just road flats.

When I am in training, I usually don\u2019t. But if I am just running by myself, sometimes I am listening to music, something rhythmic and simple. I feel that I run best when I am not thinking about anything, when I am just in the moment.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\",\"contentRight\":\"\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;What\u00b4s your favorite running route?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: My favorite running route is in front of my house in Flagstaff. I can go right up my back door and there are miles of trails and a great 10-mile trail that just loops around from my house. It goes through the pine trees and it is really quiet there.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;How often do you run? \\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: During the marathon season, I do 90 minutes in the morning and 45 minutes in the evening, every day.

I have really big goals for myself and this sport. And especially knowing that the Paris 2024 Olympics are two years away, I am trying to do everything I can do be as good as I can. At the same time, I just really love going out and running. It is not even that hard to motivate, I really want to do it. I probably won\u2019t come back to Munich before 8\/9pm tonight, but I will definitely go for a run as soon as I get back. I feel very lucky to get to do this for my job.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Do you have any tips for people who want to start their training for a marathon? \\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: The biggest challenge, even if you\u2019re starting from scratch, is to just do it every day. It doesn\u2019t have to be super far, but you have to be consistent and make it a habit. I think the more consistently you do something, the more motivation you\u2019ll get out of it. I think a lot of people think you have to be motivated, then you\u2019ll be consistent. But I think if you do something, even if you don\u2019t want to do it, you will eventually develop the motivation and the love for it.

Can you recall the moment when you realized you could be on the podium? \\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: It was really incredible and a very difficult race \u2013 it was really hot, and there were so many challenges at that time in terms of racing during a pandemic and so on. When I came over the finish line and got bronze, it was like a sense of shock. \u201cOMG, I can not believe it.\u201d All the hard work and all the struggles you took to get to this point really came out, I experienced an enormous sense of pure joy.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;This year you declared yourself out of the World Athletics Championships in Eugene due to a stress reaction in your sacrum. How do you feel now?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: That\u2019s why I am here right now, I have a problem with my hip and my lower back. It is difficult to get it going again, but now it is feeling better. PUMA is supporting me to get healthy and make sure that I get back on track. I am very grateful to be with a company that does that.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;In July you made your trail racing debut \u2013 was that something you planned for for a long time?\u00a0\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: Oh God, no. (laughs) Basically I walked a trail race for fun. My boyfriend does trail races, so he was doing the longer version of it. It was supposed to be the week after Worlds, but as I was not able to run fast, I was just thinking that I\u2019d walk it. I had the race entry and I thought I might do it. Apparently, even if you only walk, you still do pretty good at trail racing. I am definitely more of a road runner, I don\u2019t like the downhills. Everyone is sprinting down and I have to slide down the hills. I prefer the roads and I would take a road marathon over trails any day!\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;What shoes did you wear?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: I wore an old pair of PUMA flats, just road flats. They were the first pair of PUMA shoes I have ever bought online. I should have worn trail shoes, but I thought, \u201cWell, I am just walking anyways\u201d.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Do you listen to music at all whiles running?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: It depends. When I am in training, I usually don\u2019t. But if I am just running by myself, sometimes I am listening to music, something rhythmic and simple. I feel that I run best when I am not thinking about anything, when I am just in the moment.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\",\"contentRight\":\"\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;What\u00b4s your favorite running route?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: My favorite running route is in front of my house in Flagstaff. I can go right up my back door and there are miles of trails and a great 10-mile trail that just loops around from my house. It goes through the pine trees and it is really quiet there.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;How often do you run? \\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: During the marathon season, I do 90 minutes in the morning and 45 minutes in the evening, every day. Then, on the weekends I do 2-3 hours long runs.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Do you have any special routine before a competition?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: I am not really superstitious. But I do things in a certain way to be prepared, like eating at a certain time, getting all my gear together, etc.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;I guess eating means a lot of shakes?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: No, actually I don\u2019t really like that. I usually have a sandwich with peanut butter and jelly (SO GOOD!) \u2013 I prefer to chew my food.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;How do you motivate yourself for running long distances? \\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: Keeping my goals in mind. I have really big goals for myself and this sport. And especially knowing that the Paris 2024 Olympics are two years away, I am trying to do everything I can do be as good as I can. At the same time, I just really love going out and running. It is not even that hard to motivate, I really want to do it. I probably won\u2019t come back to Munich before 8\/9pm tonight, but I will definitely go for a run as soon as I get back. I feel very lucky to get to do this for my job.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Do you have any tips for people who want to start their training for a marathon? \\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: The biggest challenge, even if you\u2019re starting from scratch, is to just do it every day. It doesn\u2019t have to be super far, but you have to be consistent and make it a habit. I think the more consistently you do something, the more motivation you\u2019ll get out of it. I think a lot of people think you have to be motivated, then you\u2019ll be consistent. But I think if you do something, even if you don\u2019t want to do it, you will eventually develop the motivation and the love for it. Honestly, it\u2019s about putting on your shoes, going out the door and saying, \u201cHey, I\u2019m not coming back for 15 minutes, 20 minutes, until you get to the point where you sit back and say, \u201cI\u2019m not coming back for 90 minutes,\u201d taking just small steps.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;What are your plans for the rest of the year?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Molly: When I get back to the U.S., I\u2019ll get back into full training. I am hoping to do the half-marathon in Boston in November and some 10K-runs here in Europe again in December. In that sense, I hope my hip will feel good. I did not have a lot of races this year, so I am very antsy to get back because I just do love racing and have fun with it.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\",\"width\":\"Wide\"} \/--><!-- wp:puma\/row-text-single {\"content\":\"\\u003cblockquote class=\\u0022instagram-media\\u0022 style=\\u0022background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\\u0022 data-instgrm-captioned=\\u0022\\u0022 data-instgrm-permalink=\\u0022https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/CiSWqGdjmTW\/?utm_source=ig_embed\\u0026amp;utm_campaign=loading\\u0022 data-instgrm-version=\\u002214\\u0022\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022padding: 16px;\\u0022\\u003e\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\u00a0\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;\\u0022\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;\\u0022\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022padding: 19% 0;\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022padding-top: 8px;\\u0022\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;\\u0022\\u003eSieh dir diesen Beitrag auf Instagram an\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022padding: 12.5% 0;\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;\\u0022\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022margin-left: 8px;\\u0022\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022margin-left: auto;\\u0022\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;\\u0022\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003cdiv style=\\u0022background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;\\u0022\\u003e\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\u00a0\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Ein Beitrag geteilt von Molly Seidel (@bygolly.molly)\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u003c\/div\\u003e\\n\\u003c\/blockquote\\u003e\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\",\"width\":\"Wide\",\"aspect\":\"0\",\"style\":\"2b\"} \/--><!-- wp:puma\/row-text-single {\"content\":\"\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;em\\u0026gt;Thank you so much for the interview, Molly!
