Run Local had the pleasure of catching up with three-time U.S. 5k Champion, writer, entrepreneur and activist Lauren Fleshman. She is currently coaching a women's pro group for Oiselle called Littlewing Athletics, pushing the pace on nutrition with Picky Bars and stirring the pot whenever she encounters inequality. It was a big ol' reunion as J.T. and Josh have not caught up with Lauren in years. They discuss her coaching philosophy, her blue collar roots, and even entertain a surprise pro-athlete guest. Fleshman is also a Salomon sponsored athlete/coach.
