In this episode, the tables are turned as Allison engages with Rita, a dedicated and inspirational runner.

Rita shares her journey of overcoming anxiety through running, the supportive role of her husband and friends, and the adage 'You can do anything for 60 seconds' which has helped her and others persevere.

The conversation touches on the impact she has made in the running community, particularly with older adults, and her experience running in various races, including Disney runs dedicated to her late granddaughter Lily.

Rita also opens up about her dietary strategies during races, favorite running routines, and the joy of participation over competition.

The episode highlights the essence of running for personal fulfillment and community connection.
