309: Born to Run First Timers
06/10/24 • 122 min
“I am what I call a back of the packer runner. And I felt encouraged by everybody on the course. People that I would be like, why are they going to try and encourage me, they’re off running really fast. But everyone was so encouraging and so nice. I did not feel invisible on the course which sometimes I do.”
In this special episode, Luis chats with a dozen of Born to Run first timers. Hear their first-hand experiences at the event, how they found Born to Run, their personal running journeys, the welcoming nature of the running community, and how running has changed them.
