About this episode
In this episode of The Average Runner Podcast , I’m joined by The Realistic Runner (aka Makenzie Rink), fresh off her recent half marathon in Washington, D.C. We dive into her running journey, from how she got started to when she made the shift to heart rate training and slowing down her pace. She shares her favorite running essentials, tips on creating your own running group, and chats about her upcoming marathons in Chicago and New York. If you’re curious about making running more enjoyable, realistic, and community-driven, you won’t want to miss this one!
