Running to Keep a Healthy Mind and Body

Welcome back to Community Health Conversations, a special program from Minnesota Native News! Hosts Leah Lemm (Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe) and Dr. Antony Stately Ph.D. (Ojibwe/Oneida) lead insightful discussions about the ever-evolving landscape of healthcare in Indian Country. They discuss the valuable lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic and explore how Native communities are responding and adapting beyond COVID-19. Running is healing, according to our guest Angie DeLille, who has participated in 21 marathons. During the pandemic, Angie found herself coordinating the Tribal COVID response, but always found time to run and do marathons, even if that meant virtually. We talk with her about how she stayed healthy and safe (especially during the pandemic) and how running kept her body and mind healthy.
