A running and fitness podcast hosted by friends, whose life journeys crossed in RunDisney adventures and an inspiring running team. We are experts at almost nothing, but enjoy talking about running & fitness — the good, the bad, the ugly, and most importantly the fun. When we are not easily distracted by food, beer, boxed wine or Disney, we’ll bring you running news, race reports, listener questions and more! Join the Ohana, hosts Brittany, Kenny, Donna and Ryan for all the shenanigans.
