Summary

On today's episode, Aimee sits down with Jes Parker, founder of a new sustainable business Take2Trail. Jes is an ultra runner with a love of technical New England trails and exploring destinations by foot. Over the past few years she saw a gap in the market, where runners were having trouble affording new products and lightly used products were ending up in the trash. Now through Take2Trail, Jes has diverted over 180lbs of product from landfills. The Running Kind looks forward to partnering with Take2Trail in the future.
