Today on Run Local Wednesday we help you relieve your muscles with 5 minutes of foam rolling with our friends at California Elite Fitness and share our favorite recent stories from the running world (and sometimes not)👇
📺 But, first, we step out of our running comfort zone and get inspired by Andrew Alexander King who joined us on @RunLocalEvents IGTV to chat about his personal journey, quest to become the first African American to climb the highest mountain and volcano on each continent as well as his latest project, The Between Worlds Project.
Andrew discusses helping individuals wherever he travels to break through their personal glass ceilings regardless of race, gender, or religion, the power of running in his life as well as the discipline it provides him and celebrating black excellence every day.
📣 Share with us your #RunLocalWednesday running route, post-run coffee shop, restaurant, or other local favorites on social for a chance to be featured in an upcoming newsletter and win Run Local gear.
