Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Brigitte interviews her Runners of The Bay co-host, Mimi Albert.
Brigitte talks to Mimi about:

Her idea for Runners of The Bay and how the concept of the podcast evolved and ultimately came to fruition.

How Mimi found running as a way to give her an edge in her tennis game in High School

How she found her identity as a runner in New York on the Columbia indoor track (and ultimately in Riverside and Central Park).

How running ultimately saved her life, giving her a reason to recover from an eating disorder.

How she learns from races and training, and what a nerd she is when it comes to running science, stats, history, professional races, etc.

The role her coach plays both in her running and in her life as a friend and confidante.

Why being a part of the running community is so important for her and her dreams for the future.

Why Mimi is such a geek for all sports and how The Mighty Ducks I and II are two of the greatest sports movies ever made (not D3).
