These conversations are about the decisions people have made to get where they are today, and how getting sweaty has factored in. Whether you’re on the run toward something great or away from something that’s holding you back, join me on this never-ending adventure, and let’s a ...
Welcome to the Suite Run Podcast, we're your hosts, Natalie & Jerold Mitchell! Every week, we'll talk with inspiring runners who will share with you all about the best places to RUN, eat, sleep, places of interest, things to do and more in their hometowns. We'll also dive into their personal running journey and why they love the sport. Join us for these rich conversations as we explore the world together, all through running.
The Michigan Runner Girl podcast is where you'll find a passion for running, hiking, paddling, and cycling crosses paths with a love of nature and outdoor exploration in the beautiful state of Michigan — and beyond. A mother, writer, gigantic Great Lakes fan, and book lover Heather Durocher, creator of the running and travel site MichiganRunnerGirl.com, hosts the show. Expect to hear informative, engaging, and inspiring conversations with others also on their own health and wellness journey. ...
