The People Run Podcast
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.
Hosted by Fitz Mayi once 300+ lbs, got into lifting, then fell in love with running, and never looked back. Now a marathoner and coach, living in Colorado, originally from NYC.

Ollie shares insights on injury management, the psychological aspects of running, and the balance between running and personal life.
The conversation highlights the evolution of running culture across different countries and the significance of enjoying the journey rather than just focusing on race times.
