You Run Like A Girl

We speak with Special Olympian Kristen Hudson, her sister Megan, and their mother Laurel. Born with a rare genetic abnormality, Kristen overcame the odds to excel in cross country skiing after seeing Megan compete in the sport. In 2017, Kristen qualified for the World Special Olympic Games where she won gold. Listen in to hear how this family rallied together to help their kids excel at sport and in life and how sport can be a positive influence in the lives of those with developmental delays.

The second episode of our Olympic series is part interview, part memoir. As our host interviews Jan Longmire, one of the top figure skating costume designers in the world, she also takes time to reflect on her own experiences (and dresses) as a young girl growing up and skating in Toronto. Longmire, who resides in California and has dressed everyone from Tara Lipinski to Sasha Cohen to current American Olympian Karen Chen, dishes on how she started, her creative process and why she'll never retire.

Episode 2 - Jan Longmire

'You Run Like A Girl' launches with an inspiring interview with Nigerian Olympian Simi Adeagbo. Simi made history by becoming the first African female to qualify for the Winter Olympics in the sport of Skeleton. Listen in to hear her talk about her roles models growing up, how she went from working in sunny South Africa to sliding down an icy track on a sleigh, and how she stays motivated when things get tough.
