172. Stephanie Garcia: Grateful and Curious

from For The Long Run: Exploring the Why Behind Running · host Jonathan Levitt

Stephanie Garcia is “just a make it happen kind of girl.” She grew up in Virginia and was a walk on in the steeplechase. She’s been sponsored by New Balance for a decade, and just made the transition from track to trails and OCR. In this episode we talked about: -getting into running -her journey as a track athlete -reconciling not racing the Olympic Trials -realizing “this is not fun” -wanting to be authentic and true to herself -switching to trails and OCR -working with David Roche -“you are enough” -her love of the journey -being “grateful and curious” -what success means to her -mental health -and so much more! This episode is brought to you by Goodr.  Summer is here and Goodr has the slickest shades around, for only $25 and $35. They don’t slip or bounce, and stay on my face way better than more expensive sunglasses.  If you’d like to support me and the show, treat yourself to a pair (or two or three) of Goodr and head over to Goodr.com and get 15% off your entire order with the code FTLR. That’s 15% off at goodr.com and code FTLR. Your face will thank you.
