Run for Fun | The finale and look back at 2 years of episodes
TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) - The Run for Fun digital show and podcast made its debut on November 23, 2022. Since then, Leigh Spann and Coach Maria have broadcast 92 episodes to help runners enjoy their runs. Some episodes focused on eating enough food to support the exercise as well as keeping runs slower to stay injury-free. A few episodes checked in with local doctors to discuss sleep routines, hormones, and how to keep knees and ankles healthy. The show spent several months training a new runner to race a 5K and set up a Strava virtual running group to answer questions and create an engaging community.
