## Resource

Welcome to Bonus Smiles! A music and interview show that’s fueled by runners and their playlists! I’m Public Radio Runner. In this episode we hear from Kelsey Long who’s running mantra is “run the mile you’re in. It's a reminder for me to just focus on what you're doing, staying in the moment and not letting whatever's ahead of you overwhelm you." And when those miles get hard, the trail community often provides–a friend, a volunteer, or a pacer who chooses to endure the miles and suffer with you. Sometimes you suffer in silence and sometimes with laughter and music. These connections usually lead to friendships and partnerships beyond race day and the trails. Up first, we hear how Kelsey started out as a hater—of running and walking.
