The People Run Podcast was born on a run thinking of the everyday runners we rarely hear about. Like the mom with two kids running 70 mile weeks and chasing Boston. Or the teacher grinding before dawn. The stories behind the runs.
We spotlight runners balancing real life, work, school, family, or dreams of going pro talking mindset, progress, and the moments that keep us showing up.
