On this episode of Le Run Down I had a powerful conversation with Hedi Moussavi.He grew up playing sports as a way to fit in, and only recently started running. After surviving a life threatening illness just over a year ago, running is how he chose to celebrate living and honor the memory of those who have passed.In episode 14 Kat said "we're just ordinary people doing extra ordinary things." And Hedi's feat of 50 marathons in just over 100 days is nothing short of extraordinary.News links:https://www.runnersworld.com/news/a34252678/london-marathon-2020-results/https://www.runnersworld.com/training/a34318407/finishing-kick-in-races/Show links:https://www.instagram.com/hedionic/https://www.kare11.com/mobile/article/life/minneapolis-man-runs-50-marathons-this-summer/89-4d322a83-00d0-4fe9-99ad-aa40c2a4e3d5News:Washington Post - Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin released on bond as he faces trial in George Floyd’s deathNBC - A Denver Program Is Trading Police for Social Workers on Some 911 CallsDenver Post - Boulder County sergeant arrested after reportedly using stun gun on restrained Black inmateAJC - Police killings more likely in agencies that get military gear, data showsWays to help:Black Lives Matter - Ways You Can HelpBlack Lives Matter CanadaMontreal-Based Racial Justice OrganizationsList of American and Canadian Bail FundsEducational materials:Reclaim The Block - Resources and DownloadsCritical Resistance - Abolish PolicingCritical Resistance - Breaking Down the Prison Industrial Complex video seriesSecond Thought - America's Police Problem Hosted on Acast.
