  • Summary

  • A collective of conversations that inspire, motivate, and encourage runners who know deep down that the world we want to create already exists. We all play a role in bringing it to life. Join former professional runner and life-long athlete, Tina Muir in this unique running podcast. We do not talk to professional runners about their wins or the Olympics. We do not talk about what shoes to wear or what training is best. Instead, we relate every experience back to you, and love to think hard about the questions you would always love to ask. While we bring on well known guests like Malcolm Gladwell, Reshma Saujani, Ryan Holiday, Des Linden, Michael Gervais, and David Epstein, these are not the same old conversations. This feels more like overhearing two friends talking about the deep conversations that weigh on our hearts daily. Join us in discovering the power of running, why our sport has always been part of humanity, and how we can use it as a tool for realizing our truest self, uplifting our communities, celebrating cultures, and taking care of our Mother Earth.

    Madeleine Orr: Climate Action as a Team Sport - R4R 409
    Jul 26 2024
    July 21, 2024 was recorded as the hottest day ever globally. The record was broken the next day, a fact which will come as no surprise to runners. They experience the consequences of climate change daily as they log their miles, which is why Dr. Madeleine Orr has found them to be the ideal subject for her research into the impact of the climate crisis on athletics, which she writes about in her new book, “Warming Up: How Climate Change is Changing Sport.” For complete show notes and links, visit our website at runningforreal.com/episode409.

  • Adrian Octavius Walker: Always Be a Student - R4R 408

    Adrian Octavius Walker: Always Be a Student - R4R 408
    Jul 19 2024
    In 1998, the groundbreaking artist Gordon Parks brought 177 rappers and hip hop artists, some of them rivals, together for his photograph, “A Great Day in Hip Hop.” When it was included in an exhibit at the St. Louis Art Museum, Adrian Octavius Walker was chosen to continue Parks’ story by photographing a gathering of 116 members of the St. Louis music scene. His photo, ”A Great Day in Saint Louis," highlights the way in which art can bring people together, something that Adrian loves about running. That wasn’t the only honor he received last year; he was also selected to be one of three Bank of America Chicago Distance Series Ambassadors.

    Robert Jackson: Put Your Goals Out There - R4R 407
    Jul 12 2024
    Many people attempt to qualify for the Boston Marathon for years before they succeed, and many more never achieve that goal.

Now he has his sights set on the 2028 Olympic Trials, but that’s not the only challenge he’s taking on; he’s also determined to overcome an eating disorder.
