30m

Join us on the Athletics Ontario Running Podcast as we dive into the world of running with Dekel Chui, one of the 2025-2026 AO Running Ambassadors! Based in Toronto, Dekel embodies the spirit of "running for joy," sharing his journey of rediscovering the sport and finding profound happiness in every stride. We'll explore his incredible feats, including being part of a team that holds two Guinness World Records for the Fastest Marathon and Fastest Half-marathon in a Five-Person Costume (dressed as a Streetcar!).
Beyond the records, Dekel is deeply involved with RunTOBeer (@runtobeer) as a Board of Directors member. Discover how this unique group perfectly blends the joy of running with the camaraderie of post-run socializing. Dekel shares his passion for fostering a more accessible and welcoming running community, where fun and inclusivity are paramount, regardless of pace or ability.
