Asti White grew up in Atlanta and even as a part of the Atlanta running community. He has seen it from many different angles. Now, as an adult, he sees how much the community can not only offer to him, and what he can offer back. He has focused his time on building friendships and relationships, and learning more to unloack not just what it looks like to run in Atlanta but using his knowledge to see what it is like to live in the ATL as well.  His community connections led him to want to try out the marathon at the Detroit Free Press Marathon, and it was an impactful time in his life. He talks about the continued support he is giving to the community, and how he sees this “web of grace” as a place that good in the world can come from.

Joining the podcast from Run Boulder AC, Adam brings a perspective of what it is like to live in one of the most popular running destinations in the United States. However, not even the competitiveness of where he lives, nor being a member of Team USA, has taken from his desire to be a positive and supportive beacon in the Boulder community. Adam’s optimism helps to show that it doesn’t matter what your speed is or even how far you can run. What matters is that you are out there doing the dang thing. Adam loves to support, encourage, and reflect the humble spirit in his running community, as he seeks to help others grow while he does the same. Another great conversation you won’t want to skip!Learn more about Run Boulder AC here.Follow Adam’s journey on Instagram or StravaRun Build Grow is hosted by Andrew Ware, The RunninRev.

Bobby runs in Northwest Arkansas, but has never limited himself to just his local community. In fact that is just where everything starts. The authenticity and realness that he expresses to local runners in his area, extends across the country through social media, brand partnerships, and his presence at races. No matter where he is, his mustache cannot be missed. This is a conversation where we explore how bringing this authenticity, makes community worth every second.Bobby on InstagramRun Build Grow is hosted by Andrew Ware, The RunninRev.

Libby Miller may be new-ish to the Montgomery Road Runners, and she is already making her presence known. Having been fairly transient in her early adult life, she was familiar with finding run community no matter where she lived. That didn't change when she arrived in the Great DC Metro area. She found herself joining the run club in Montgomery County, Maryland and has enjoyed running, coaching, volunteering, and helping the club be all it can be for all paces. Check out this conversation as Libby and I explore her journey and what it has meant to be a part of such and awesome club. We also explore her new connection with the Hampton Roads area and how it has made an impact in her local running community.
