Suite Run Jerold & Natalie Mitchell

Olympian, New York Times Bestselling author and NBC sports analyst, Kara Goucher is BACK as a returning guest on the Suite Run Podcast! What a special treat to have Kara return to the show to chat with us two years after our first conversation. This time we talk a lot about Kara's new book, "The Longest Race" and the impact that her compelling story has had on the running and sports industry - definitely put Kara's book at the top of your reading list.
In the second half, we talk about Kara's original hometown of Duluth, MN! Raised in this idyllic lake town (now she gets to spend her summers there!), Kara walks us through her absolute favorite places to RUN, dine out, sightsee, race and much more.
