    32. Running the 615 - (Des Linden)

    Welcome to Running the 615 Podcast - this is as exciting as it gets, Big news!, Huge news!! Our guest for episode 32 is Boston Marathon Winner Des Linden !!!! That's right the living legend Des Linden came to Nashville a few weeks ago promoting her new book "Choosing to Run" so Fleet Feet Nashville and Brooks hosted an event for her. It was an absolutely perfect day and I am so grateful that we got to record the interview so we can share it with all of you. Fleet Feet Nashville owner and guest #1 on Running the 615 podcast Christi Beth Adams interviewed Des and I threw in a few questions as well. Christi Beth did an amazing job in the interview and it was so entertaining. Des and her agent Josh Cox are as cool as it gets and they helped make the event very special for the 200+ who were in attendance. Des is such a great ambassador for running and for the Brooks Running brand. Having her as a guest on this podcast is such a treat and will remain a highlight for many years to come. Thank you Desi and thanks so much for listening.

    Welcome to Running the 615 episode 28 .... Or should I say welcome back. After a brief time away we are back with a new episode for your listening pleasure. Our guest is Sarah Shearer and she has an awesome story about her life, her career, her running journey and a brand new residence for her and her family in Puerto Rico. I have known Sarah for a while now and I was excited to sit down and chat with her. Sarah was born in Pennsylvania, moved to Tennessee, then to Mississippi for college where she met her husband Jon and then back to Tennessee in the 615. She was so entertaining to chat with and very real about things she has been through and how running has been such a big part of her life.

    27. Running the 615 (Kevin and Durham Queen)

    Kevin Queen is the lead pastor at Crosspoint church here in Nashville and he is so enjoyable to listen to on Sundays. Earlier this year during one of Crosspoint's Sunday messages Kevin talked about how he challenged his 2 sons Durham and Bolton to run every day for a year. In today's episode we talk to Kevin and his oldest son Durham about the 1 year challenge and all that it entailed. We also talk about Nashville, how Kevin came to be the pastor at Crosspoint and many other topics. It was so fun to talk to them both and I am very thankful that they came by and let me interview them. It's such a unique and inspiring challenge that Kevin and his wife Rea put out their for their boys and I loved learning more about it. Durham is definitely one of my favorite guest we have had on the podcast so far and his answers were as good as it gets. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed sitting down and chatting with these fantastic guys.

    26. Running the 615 (Kim Glenn)

    Kim Glenn is one of those people in life that instantly makes you smile every time you see her. She was born on the east coast in Virginia Beach and started running in junior high. In this episode we talk all about her running, her favorite races, her education, and her career. We also talk plenty about back in the day when we were coworkers at Fleet Feet and became friends. Kim like many other guest we have had so far is one of the first names that I wrote down that I hoped to interview before I started this podcast. She is super fun, super personable and super interesting to talk to. The energy that she brings to life, running and those around her is contagious and she is such a joy to know. This interview could have lasted 7 hours because of how much we both like to talk ... but by some miracle we were able to keep it closer to 1. Thanks as always for listening everyone and thanks to Kim for being such a great guest.
