Welcome back to more than running with Dana. I’m your host Dana Giordano, and on this show, I talk to the women in and around the running community who inspire me daily. I started this podcast when I was running professionally and I felt like the deeper stories of women were not being amplified. Stay for real conversations about confidence, mental health, body image, motivation, and of course, running.
This episode of More Than Running is supported by New Balance. This is a mini-series featuring New Balance’s Stolen Starts ambassadors and Team New Balance athletes.
I have often felt like the ends of our running community have felt so separate and what better way to celebrate women in running by round table conversations with the women making change within their communities and reaching new heights on the professional track circuit.
On the community end of the spectrum are the women of The Stolen Starts, a women’s running collective started in 2021. 10 ambassadors make up The Stolen Starts and include women from London, South Korea, Berlin, LA, Paris, and more. Each woman in the collective was selected because they are each powerful advocates for specific causes in their respective communities. In this episode, we meet Harky Kalsi a London-based artist and multi-time marathoner championing conversations about mental health in running.
On the other end of the running spectrum and the world, we met Heather MacLean, USA 1500m Olympian and also my best friend! Heather had a challenging year with health and mental health struggles, and her honesty is essential to what the sport needs to grow and be more inclusive for all!
Over the next 45 minutes, you will hear an incredible conversation about mental health, motivation, community, and more. It’s like going on a run with your favorite people. Heather and Harky are both more than running, and I hope you enjoy this series!
