Getting Real with Michelle La Sala, Founder of Blistering Pace Race Management

We’re excited to bring you Episode 173 of The BibRave Podcast!

This week’s episode is brought to you by the Kaiser Permanente San Francisco Half Marathon presented by Pamakid Runners! The Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K are all taking place on February 2, 2020, in Golden Gate Park, and you don’t want to miss out!

This week Tim and Jess talk to Michelle La Sala, Founder and President of Blistering Pace Race Management (BPRM) which puts on the Kaiser Permanente San Francisco Half Marathon, along with a number of other events! We always love hearing the behind-the-scenes stories of the race industry, and Michelle’s story of how BPRM launched is a tale of scrappiness, confidence, and passion. The Kaiser Permanente San Francisco Half Marathon is also featured on The BibRave 100 in 2019, so we discuss what makes this race event so special, and also feature their new City Guide, showcasing all that San Fran has to offer for race participants!
