On this episode of Just Average, I talk to Melisa Link Jones about her BRCA1 positive diagnosis, the hard decisions she’s had to make, and preparing for a complex series of surgeries. She opens up about her state of mind and how she is getting though this difficult time while maintaining positivity and a forward thinking mindset.

In this episode of Just Average, I continue my conversation with Dr. Bellanca from our last episode, but we dive into the topic of women's safety in running. Specifically alone. Tragically, back in February another woman was killed while out running. Kelsey and I discuss the fear-mongering that we feel is influencing the behavior of female runners and discuss how we can still do this sport we love.
