Today on the podcast, I am so excited to welcome Jenny Simpson back to the show. She has been on the podcast several times, and it has been really special to talk with her at different points in her life and career. We recorded this episode in person at the Fleet Feet headquarters in Carrboro, which is just a short drive from my home in Raleigh. Getting to sit down face to face made this conversation feel even more meaningful. Jenny recently stepped into a new role as the first Chief Running Officer at Fleet Feet, and we talk about what that transition has been like. We also reflect on her career, from being a world champion and Olympic bronze medalist in the 1500 meters to the many experiences she has had since stepping away from professional racing. We talk about her seven marathons on seven continents in seven days, the RV trip she and her husband took across the country visiting running stores and communities in every state, and how those experiences have shaped what she is doing now. Jenny is one of those people who makes you feel seen. She shows up fully in conversation, and you can feel how deeply she cares about people and the running community. I know you are going to feel that in this episode. I hope you enjoy this conversation with Jenny Simpson.

In this episode, Wil chats with longtime friend and restaurateur Drew Moore of Carrboro, NC. Drew shares updates on his ventures, including Venable Bistro, B-Side Lounge, Auto Strada Pizza & Panini, Auto Strada Gelato & Coffee, and the upcoming House of Gatewood Chop House in Hillsborough. He explains how a 2022 trip to France and Italy inspired Auto Strada, modeled after Italian “auto grills,” offering high-quality paninis, pizza with imported Italian flour, and real ingredients at approachable prices. They discuss the challenges of running restaurants, including supply chain issues (especially in beef), workforce recovery post-COVID, rising tuition and its impact on staffing, and educating consumers on healthier food choices. Drew emphasizes values-driven business practices, maintaining ingredient integrity, and making dining experiences approachable while elevating quality, all while balancing the very real, unglamorous daily demands of restaurant ownership.Takeaways: Inspiration from Italy: Auto Strada was inspired by Italian highway “auto grills,” which offer fresh, high-quality paninis, coffee, and gelato, something Drew wanted to bring to North Carolina. Ingredient Integrity: Auto Strada uses imported Italian double-zero flour (non-GMO and glyphosate-free), San Marzano tomatoes, and high-quality Wisconsin cheeses, making their pizza more digestible and flavorful. Educating Consumers: Many customers already recognize the health benefits of authentic ingredients, and Drew uses menu descriptions and conversations to further educate them. Economic Realities: While higher-quality ingredients cost more, Drew notes that dough remains inexpensive compared to cheese and proteins, making pricing manageable for customers. Beef Supply Challenges: The beef market is at its lowest production since the 1940s, making sourcing for the chop house complex; Drew is exploring local farms and co-ops for ethical, high-quality beef. Workforce Recovery: Post-COVID staffing remains challenging, though 2024 has shown improvement. University towns have a unique labor cycle, but graduate school enrollment spikes have slowed industry recovery. Consumer Shifts: Customers are increasingly health-conscious, moving away from processed fast food toward real, nutrient-dense options—a shift that supports Drew's model. Rising Tuition & Labor Market: Drew and Wil discuss the high cost of higher education, diminishing ROI for some degrees, and how AI may replace entry-level jobs, influencing the restaurant labor pool. The Unseen Side of Ownership: Drew highlights the unglamorous reality of restaurant ownership, fixing toilets, handling equipment breakdowns, and responding to emergencies are all part of the job.
