Stay ConnectedThis podcast allows runners to connect and envision what they could become. Everyone starts somewhere but it’s how you move forward that determines which path you’ll take. For some, running is just exercise, however we believe it is much more than that: it’s mental, physical and in some cases even spiritual. Our guests are inspiring in terms of their accomplishments but they put one foot in front of the other just like everyone else.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had a smooth chat with distance runner and elite marathoner, Dakotah Lindwurm.
She actually didn't start out as a runner but had dreams of making it big as an ice hockey goaltender. The running started as a way to have a more balanced approach to sport.
Dakotah's love for running was a gradual progression, sticking with it, making improvement's year after year but most of all, having fun. Whether it's a world major or Olympic qualifier, she can always be seen with a smile across her face.

On this episode of Le Run Down we discussed all things running with distance runner and Uptempo Running co-founder, Shadoe Huard.
He's been passionate about sports since he can remember and used running as a way to stay in shape for his first love which was basketball.
Shadoe's enjoyment for running only came later but now uses it as a vehicle for inner growth and personal development. It's even lead him to the creation of a run group that provides all runners with the power to discover and explore their potential through movement.

On this episode of Le Run Down we enjoyed a great conversation with trail runner and ultra endurance athlete, David Kilgore.
From a young age, running was a way for David to enjoy nature and explore the outdoors. As a teen he was able to shift that passion to track and field but managed to keep it fun while racing competitively.
Fast forward and he's now taking on ultra distances, nurturing his light heartedness towards the sport with challenges, and generating funds for charities in need.

On this episode of Le Run Down I spoke with amputee ultrarunner and cancer survivor, Jacky Hunt-Broersma.
Originally from South Africa, she moved around a lot before eventually calling Arizona her home. In 2001 a cancer diagnosis required the amputation of her leg, but eventually she found running which gave her a new outlook on life.
Today she holds multiple endurance records as an amputee runner. Most recently completing 104 marathons in 104 straight days for charity, proving that we are all capable of extraordinary things.

On this episode of Le Run Down we explored the elements with professional adventure and documentary filmmaker, Caroline Cote.
As a kid Caroline was always interested in discovering nature and outdoors. These days she uses running as a way to prepare herself for new challenges and expeditions she's about to face.
She's an amazing talent and person, capturing beautiful images in some of the most remote and untouched areas on our planet. Her passion is her life, one that allows her to feel fulfilled every day.

On this episode of Le Run Down we had the honor of speaking with one of Canada's fastest marathoners and Olympian, Trevor Hofbauer.
Trevor didn't enjoy running track in high school but could see the benefits it gave him for his true passion, basketball.
He continued to run cross country as a way to stay in shape and that developed into so much more. Today, he's one of two Canadians to break the 2 hour 10 minute marathon barrier and has his sites set on Paris 2024.

On this episode of Le Run Down we caught up with Toronto Marathon Runner and member of Reid Coolsaet's "Coolsaet Go" Run Club, Nick Rupert.
Nick ran track as a teenager but ended up having a negative association to the sport and decided to give it up for over 5 years. He returned to running to improve his mental and physical health with the goal of racing the Boston Marathon one day.
This year he achieved that goal, toeing the line and completing his first, making that dream become a reality.

On this episode of Le Run Down we talk running in a mindful way with elite marathoner, yoga instructor and writer, Alex Dickinson.
I had the pleasure of meeting Alex just after the California International Marathon last year and knew then he'd be a great guest on the show.
He's a very interesting guy who has found synergy between his two passions, yoga and running. He's also well travelled and isn't scared to switch up his living situation from time to time, even if that means living in a van for a while.

On this episode of Le Run Down, we got to know marathoner, community leader and co-founder of WERUN313, Lance Woods.
Lance moved away from his home town of Detroit to pursue education, and when he returned his focus shifted to bettering his community and sharing his passion for running with everyone.
In only a few years, Lance and his team have built something lasting and life changing through this sport we all love. He's also pursuing his own goals as he prepares to take on his first ever Boston Marathon this spring.

On this episode episode of Le Run Down I had a nice chat with marketer, marathoner and community builder, Jenna Crawford. Whether it's through her creativity, growth marketing expertise or mentoring others, she has found a way to link it back to endurance sports. Her passion for running has grown to the ultra trails and she enjoys using that to connect like minded people within the Los Angeles run community.
