The Running for Real Podcast

  • Summary

  • A collective of conversations that inspire, motivate, and encourage runners who know deep down that the world we want to create already exists. We all play a role in bringing it to life. Join former professional runner and life-long athlete, Tina Muir in this unique running podcast. We do not talk to professional runners about their wins or the Olympics. We do not talk about what shoes to wear or what training is best. Instead, we relate every experience back to you, and love to think hard about the questions you would always love to ask. While we bring on well known guests like Malcolm Gladwell, Reshma Saujani, Ryan Holiday, Des Linden, Michael Gervais, and David Epstein, these are not the same old conversations. This feels more like overhearing two friends talking about the deep conversations that weigh on our hearts daily. Join us in discovering the power of running, why our sport has always been part of humanity, and how we can use it as a tool for realizing our truest self, uplifting our communities, celebrating cultures, and taking care of our Mother Earth.

    Rahsaan "New York" Thomas: When the Law Changes, It Changes for Everyone - R4R 416
    Sep 13 2024
    In the documentary “26.2 TO LIFE,” Rahsaan “New York” Thomas inspired audiences as he trained to run a marathon behind the walls of San Quentin Prison. He wasn’t only preparing for a race; he was working to become the best person that he could be, even though he knew that he might never go home. He became an acclaimed journalist; producer of the Pulitzer Prize-nominated podcast, “Ear Hustle”; and Executive Director of Empowerment Avenue, a nonprofit established to normalize the inclusion of incarcerated writers and artists in mainstream venues.

  • Six Missing / TJ Dumser: You Can't Be Anywhere Else but on the Run - R4R 415

    Six Missing / TJ Dumser: You Can't Be Anywhere Else but on the Run - R4R 415
    Sep 6 2024
    Recording as Six Missing, ambient artist TJ Dumser creates music that encourages mindfulness and positive lifestyle habits. He combined both practices through running, but a few years ago, he lost both his love of the run and the mental clarity that came with it. He explores that period of his life in Six Missing’s upcoming project, “Gentle Breath.” Photo credit: Andrea Mendoza For complete show notes and links, visit our website at runningforreal.com/episode415.
