Insights for leaders who run and runners who lead
My goal is to help runners who lead and leaders who run. I’m a 2:42 marathon runner and CEO of a 150-person tech company. As a runner, I love racing 10k’s, half marathons, and marathons around the world. As an entrepreneur, I’ve found that pursuing my potential as a runner has helped me grow as a leader and lead more effectively. Now, I’ve launched RunToLead to share learnings and experience to help other running leaders achieve breakthroughs in their running, their careers, and their lives. I hope this site helps give you useful ideas for your running journey – races to check out, training approaches and workouts to try, and tips to help you grow as a runner and as a leader.
