In this episode, Pam Rickard shares her journey of recovery from alcoholism and how running has played a significant role in her sobriety. She discusses her involvement in the community, meeting Liz and going public with her story, and the connections she has made through running. Pam also talks about her work with the Herren Project and the impact of running in raising money for nonprofits. She shares her experiences running marathons and the joy of being trusted.  We also talk about her Ohio connection back at home with friends like Patrick Leber and the North East Running Club.
You are going to learn how Running can be a powerful tool in recovery from addiction and can provide a sense of purpose and connection.

During the Tros, Erika and Eric quickly get to the exciting news about the Poland Spring Marathon Team that is well represented with friends of the Pod including one very deserving runner who got on the team. The Tros ended quickly as Erika all of a sudden disappeared. So we'll be back Thursday for an extended Outro to talk all about the Boston Run Show!
