Episode 2: Mimi Albert
In this episode, Brigitte interviews her Runners of The Bay co-host, Mimi Albert.
Brigitte talks to Mimi about:
Her idea for Runners of The Bay and how the concept of the podcast evolved and ultimately came to fruition.
How Mimi found running as a way to give her an edge in her tennis game in high school
How she found her identity as a runner in New York on the Columbia indoor track (and ultimately in Riverside and Central Park).
How running ultimately saved her life, giving her a reason to recover from an eating disorder.
How she learns from races and training, and what a nerd she is when it comes to running science, stats, history, professional races, etc.
The role her coach plays both in her running and in her life as a friend and confidante.
Why being a part of the running community is so important for her and her dreams for the future.
Why Mimi is such a geek for all sports and how The Mighty Ducks I and II are two of the greatest sports movies ever made (not D3).
