© 2024 The Running Grind
Description
The Running Grind, presented by The Grind Effect, is a podcast dedicated to hearing the journey behind your grind. With its origins from long distance running, the Running Grind aims to hear the unique stories behind runner's trainings from full marathons to couch-to-5k's. Everyone's story is different and everyone has a different reason behind their goals. From Boston Qualifiers to new runner's, this podcast is meant to inspire and have listeners aspire to reach for their goals, although the path to get there may not be the easiest. The Grind Effect is a lifestyle, a state of mind, and a reminder that anything worth it in life, is a grind; nothing comes easy.

At the 2023 Texas Independence Relay, the husband and wife duo took on the ~200 mile race as a team of two.

Chevron Houston Marathon 2022 was my first live marathon and finished with a sub-3:33:00 so the goal for CHM 2023 was to break that time break it by almost 8 minutes.
