Customer Reviews
So amazing but where did episodes 1-8 go!?
This whole season was amazing! We need more of the beautifully crafted show. Also many episodes disappeared from the feed :(
Amazingly well crafted
As someone with a liberal arts education who also loves to run (and is an avid Trail Runner Magazine reader), the storytelling in this podcast blew me away. Introducing a theme with a discussion about an influential writer and their work, and then applying that theme to the interview with the athlete and telling their story makes this podcast incredible. I feel amazed by the quality of the storytelling every time I listen to an episode.
What I was looking for
This is what I was looking for, insightful, positive, realistic, this host is a pro, keep them coming please!
