Conor Stone is a runner, more known for mindfulness teaching. His podcast, The Mindful Minute, has over 1 million plays and 14k followers on Spotify. The most popular episodes are both 'Mindful Running' episodes. 

Most people, including myself, mostly focus on times when running and racing, but I think the most enjoyable are when we focus on being present. Some people do this naturally, but others need support with anchoring themselves into the present as they move. This can be through breathing patterns, body scanning, and sense activation (focus on what you can hear, see, smell, taste, etc). "
