    E92: RunFluent Events & The Stangles

    In this episode of Weathering The Run, I sit down with Ivi, Chris, and James Stangle of RunFluent Events to talk about the incredible amount of work that goes into growing the trail-running scene in both Florida and Ohio. RunFluent has evolved from an online coaching business into a family-owned operation that puts on trail and ultra-running events across two states. But as we discuss in this episode, their impact goes well beyond race day. We talk about the work that goes into building, maintaining, and improving trails, creating memorable race experiences, supporting runners, and helping introduce more people to trail and ultra running. The amount of time, energy, and sweat that goes into keeping these trails accessible and enjoyable is phenomenal, and a lot of that work happens long before runners ever arrive at the starting line. We also talk about the differences between the trail-running communities in Florida and Ohio, some of the challenges that come with creating races in very different environments, and why investing in the trails and the people who use them is so important to the future of the sport. RunFluent currently organizes trail and ultra events in both Florida and Ohio, with a focus on creating more than just races, but experiences that bring runners together and strengthen the trail-running community.

Summer then had a handful of really insightful questions she came up with at the end about previous guests and what stuck with me from the 88 previous guests. Good stuff!

    E85: Michael Owen, running and race directing SEOTR events

    Michael Owen is an legend with Ohio runners. He has a long history of running on the trails after he got his first taste of it, back in college. He then started SEOTR, Southeast Ohio Trail Runners, which is an event group that now helps to host 10 races across the state. His races range from one mile to 100. And if you want to go farther, then he is the race director for OBU, Ohio's Backyard Ultra, that can go for more than 200 miles!

His races also have a very family vibe and it keeps runners coming back year after year. Great chat with Michael and I hope you enjoy it!
