À propos de cet audio

The dynamic running duo Alexi Pappas and Lisa Thompson joined me in studio during Boston Marathon weekend as they prepared to race their fourth Boston together. Alexi, a former Olympian representing Greece, and Lisa Thompson, a competitive visually impaired runner, met years ago through 'Team With a Vision' and have been racing around the world since. Today we dive in to:

  • How the two first met & how they knew that they would be unstoppable teaming up together
  • Their tether and communication system that helps them navigate crowds and streets
  • The ways each runner supports the other throughout the 26.2 miles
  • How Alexi decides what to illustrate for Lisa
  • Race day brain games -- positivity alphabet, "bird", etc
  • How they both started in the sport of running & how they ultimately got hooked on the marathon distance
  • Glitter!
