If you’re in Charleston and haven’t heard of Let’s Run Charleston (LRC), it’s time to lace up! Founded by the dynamic duo Ellie and Brad, LRC has grown from a simple idea of training for a half marathon into the city’s largest (and most inclusive) run club. With over 200 runners showing up weekly, LRC is all about fun, community, and making running accessible for all paces—whether you’re a seasoned marathoner or just starting out.

In this episode, Ellie and Brad dive into how it all began, what sets Let’s Run Charleston apart, and the intentionality behind every run, social event, and community initiative. We also get personal with these two fitness pros: how they met, their journeys into health and fitness, and their go-to coffee spots, restaurants, PR songs, and running shoes. Plus, they share their vision for LRC’s future and all the exciting events planned for this year.
