In this episode of the Dogs Per Mile podcast, I interview my husband, Ed, about his journey into running, his experiences with training for the Brooklyn Half Marathon, and the dynamics of being married to a runner. We discuss Ed's athletic background, the challenges and joys of running, the importance of support systems, and how they balance their individual goals with their shared love for running. Ed shares his thoughts on what it means to be a runner, the significance of community, and his personal goals for the upcoming race.

As running partners in life, Ed and I explore the unique impact of running on our relationship, where the track becomes a mental escape and a source of personal fulfillment. We dive into the dynamics of supporting each other's aspirations in the running community, from logistics on race day to combining our love for travel with exciting races. These shared experiences highlight the importance of aligning personal interests and how running has played a pivotal role in enriching our lives.

Immerse yourself in the vibrant world of running identity and community inclusivity. We celebrate the diversity in the running community and challenge misconceptions about who qualifies as a "runner." From personalized training plans to eclectic music and quirky running fuel, we share our journey toward the Brooklyn Half Marathon. Stay connected with our running adventures and find joy in every step alongside our furry running companions, Yogi and Maple, on Instagram.
