Why We Run
In the before times, I had this podcast where I interviewed runners, while we were running. It literally took me years to figure out how to record people running: I made a ton of mistakes, fails and heaps of frustrations. (kinda like learning to run...eh?)BUT I nailed it down, and it was great! 13 glorious episodes of heavy breathing, feet pounding and truth telling...all while running and laughing. THEN COVID. BOO.But we are back and I am interviewing people who happen to run, but via Zoom this time...Season 2, if you will. So far I have interviewed writers, musicians, a singer and a BISHOP! Each episode is full of laughter, fun and we get deep into why people run. And if you would do me a solid, please subscribe and share...because sharing is caring. THANK YOU! Want to start running??

Why We Run
Bishop Jennifer Baskerville-Burrows is About Loving Yourself

Season 2

Episode 3
When Jennifer isn't running, teaching, biking or being a mom, she is traveling around for her work as the bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Indianapolis. She is the first black woman to be elected a diocesan bishop, and she is also a runner. She has been running since college, when she was on the crew team and had to run to the boat house.
I met Jennifer in 2017 on a shuttle bus for a Oiselle running camp in Pennsylvania and we connected over 80's music, motherhood and running, and we've been friends ever since.
She has beautiful insights on religion and what it means to be an athlete as a way to take care of her body mind and spirit.
Bonus! Here's her running playlist.
