The I Heart Running Podcast

"GROUNDED BY EXPLORING WILD SPACES.  DRIVEN BY COMMUNITY. PASSIONATELY INSPIRING OTHERS TO DO MORE." This is the header on Krissy's webpage, and it sums up Krissy to a T. Race director of Chuckanut 50k, accomplished ultramarathoner, running coach, author, and dog mama, I am so excited to have Krissy on the I Heart Running Podcast because Krissy was instrumental in my own running journey, as well as many others. Krissy has been running and winning multiple ultra marathons since the early 2000s, an era before Instagram and YouTube, and in a time when it was mostly men who dominated the trail scene. See some of her notable accomplishments below. Krissy has given so much to the community, and continues to do so through so many roles.  Link to purchase the 2nd edition of Running Your First Ultra (email your receipt for an autograph!): https://linktr.ee/krissymoehl  https://www.instagram.com/krissymoehl/?hl=en Website: http://krissymoehl.com/  https://chuckanut50krace.com/  https://www.unitedinstride.com/  3/9/18 Mt.
