Podcast Overview

This podcast allows runners to connect and envision what they could become. Everyone starts somewhere but it’s how you move forward that determines which path you’ll take. For some, running is just exercise, however we believe it is much more than that: it’s mental, physical and in some cases even spiritual. Our guests are inspiring in terms of their accomplishments but they put one foot in front of the other just like everyone else.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

#112: Jerry Hughes - Endurance athlete, Ultra, Adversity, Gardner's Syndrome, 48 Hour Canadian Record, Marathons, 100 Milers

<p>On this episode of Le Run Down I had an eye opening conversation with ultra runner, Jerry Hughes. </p><p>He overcame adversity far before getting into running, pushing forward through his diagnosis and treatment for Gardner's Syndrome. </p><p>He used running as a way to improve his health and quickly realized endurance was for him. From marathons, to 100 milers and now the Canadian 48 hour record, he's inspiring the run community and proving that we are all capable of so much more than we think.</p><p>News:</p><p><a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/12/27/what-will-2023-bring-for-iran-and-its-protest-movement" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Al Jazeera - What will 2023 bring for Iran and its protest movement?</a></p><p><a href="https://missionlocal.org/2022/11/killer-robots-to-be-permitted-under-sfpd-draft-policy/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mission Local - SFPD authorized to kill suspects using robots in draft policy</a></p><p><a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/students-police-arrests-illinois-garrison-school" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ProPublica - The School That Calls the Police on Students Every Other Day</a></p><p><a href="https://thetyee.ca/Analysis/2022/12/15/MAID-Mental-Illness-Terrible-Mistake/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Tyee - We’re Making a Terrible Mistake on MAID and Mental Illness</a></p><p>How to Help:</p><p><a href="https://donations4abortion.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Abortion Funds in Every State</a></p><p><a href="https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Black Lives Matter - Ways You Can Help</a></p><p><a href="https://blacklivesmatter-canada.carrd.co/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Black Lives Matter Canada</a></p><p><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZH0xk5FqYJXwymoue-dnjqJEMj3FplF0Om8wdm8HZd0/edit" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Montreal-Based Racial Justice Organizations</a></p><p><a href="https://bailfunds.github.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">List of American and Canadian Bail Funds</a></p><p>Educational Materials:</p><p><a href="https://www.reclaimtheblock.org/home/#resources" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Reclaim The Block - Resources and Downloads</a></p><p><a href="http://criticalresistance.org/abolish-policing/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Critical Resistance - Abolish Policing</a></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYn1EYMdFkqnY2I4I8FzaJoGqEGLdHi6v" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Critical Resistance - Breaking Down the Prison Industrial Complex video series</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
