Running New Mexico Podcast

This week I had the pleasure to talk with Leah Purucker. She is a Trail runner and chef at Daily Grind.

It was great to have her on and talk about how she got started in running at a young age, but never competed in running until later in life. She talks about learning about running and training for her first race, a marathon!

We also talk about how she became a chef and some similarities in competing between running and cooking. 

She isn't competing currently and it was interesting to learn about an injury she's been dealing with and the doubts that can creep up for any runner when we have a longer hiatus.

It was great to talk with someone that I've seen out in my running area and really get to know her better. I hope you enjoy our conversation.

The heat is really starting to come on with some triple digit numbers in the metro area and down south dealing with even higher temps. It's always important to hydrate, but in the heart of summer, it's especially important. So listen to your body, wear that sunscreen, and keep running, New Mexico.
