Diana Angstadt and I first met via Instagram this past year when her story caught my attention.
In this time of Covid-19 without any races to train for, Diana took this opportunity to challenge herself while raising money and awareness for a cause close to her heart.
I am looking forward to going a few easy miles with Diana Angstadt today.

My guest on the show today is a woman that I first connected with a couple of months ago on Instagram.
Aside from being a runner, she is also a United States Air Force Veteran, mom, and proud member of the Navajo Nation.

I am going a few easy miles with Sasha Yazzie and am looking forward to finding out more about her.
Today I’m running with friend/listener of the show, and a man who recently finished his 1st ultra, Joshua St John.
Joshua St John
Joshua has only been running for a handful of years (at the time of this recording), and after getting out of the military his health took a pretty serious turn for the worst. He was taking medication for PTSD and depression, one of the side effects of the medications was weight gain gain.
After some time, he knew he needed to make a change for his health and he started walking.
At that point, it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that vacuuming the house was physically demanding, so simply getting out of the house and walking was a very positive step for Joshua both mentally and physically.
The hardest step is always the one out your front door, and that never changes. ~Joshua St John #runchat Click To Tweet Read more
Running was never something that Tim Nichols did a lot of, until he joined the United States Air Force and didn’t have a choice! Now that he is no longer active duty, he finds himself running fairly often but on his terms and at his pace.
Tim Nichols
While running isn’t Tim’s focus in his day to day life, he has learned over time how important it is to have a release when life gets stressful and he has found that running can be a great way for him to relieve that stress.
We covered lots of ground on our run today, and here are some of the highlights:
Best place to find Tim online to connect with him, find info about both of his podcasts (The 52 Week Start Up and Brewing Business) is on his website. http://brewingbusinesspc.com

Both the Facebook group and the email group provide opportunities that can’t be found anywhere else.
The Facebook group is still small, but it is a great way to connect with fellow runners and foster community amongst like minded individuals. The email group is THE way to stay up to date about future guests on the show, as well as getting some other freebies and offers that aren’t available to anyone else.
