#119 - The Best of The Pioneers (Part One)

A Runner’s Life - A podcast by Marcus Brown

Episode 119, is the the best of the pioneers, from the conversations that I’ve had on this podcast. The idea behind this episode was to celebrate Black History Month in America. However I’m not a fan of the word history, in this moment there is still so much more to do to bring a better future for the next generations. And whilst there were some great takeaways in regards to the Black experience, this conversation also highlights that we (collectively) need to be better allies across race and gender lines towards each other. Thank you to each of the guests, where I’ve highlighted some of my favourite moments from the following episodes.
