Episode 53 - What Running Did For Me
Running can mean so many things to so many different individuals. The rise of Richmond run clubs has allowed for the creation of meaningful safe spaces for everyone to accomplish their goals. Last week, the Health & Fitness Expo of the Allianz Partners Richmond Marathon featured a live panel on 'What Running Did For Me' moderated by Lindsey Hein, and featuring Anthony Clary of We Off The Couch, Suellen Henneberry of Sportable, Kleigh Koupal of Effect Run Club, and Josh Leidy of 804 Run Club. Check out all they had to say about their respective clubs, running journeys, and advice for marathon runners!
