#420 - Emma Zimmerman: Rising Star in Running Journalism

In a few short years Emma Zimmerman has made a name for herself in the world of running media and has done so on her terms. I couldn't wait to have Emma on the show to learn more about her rapid rise. Emma is a Brooklyn-based writer and journalist who explores topics of women in endurance sports, sport and social change, and environmental justice. Her journalism has appeared in Outside, Runner’s World, Trail Runner, Women’s Running, and Taproot Magazine. She is also the founder and host of the Social Sport podcast, on endurance athletes committed to social change, and the affiliated Social Sport newsletter.
