Jessie Zapo

Joining Adrienne in the studio this week is the incredible Jessie Zapo. Dubbed “the first lady of running” by Charlie Dark (Run Dem Crew London), Jessie was an early member of the New York City based running group the Bridgerunners. Jessie’s work as a member, leader and pacer with Bridgerunners over close to a seven year span led her to help create a space for women and new runners in New York City’s emerging “urban running” community. Sometimes in front of the camera as an influencer but most often behind the scenes, Jessie has been actively involved in NYC since 2005 and has been dedicated to creating unique running experiences. She’s traveled nationally and internationally through running and has primarily focused on the community building aspect that running can provide.
