Kevin Queen is the lead pastor at Crosspoint church here in Nashville and he is so enjoyable to listen to on Sundays. Earlier this year during one of Crosspoint's Sunday messages Kevin talked about how he challenged his 2 sons Durham and Bolton to run every day for a year. In today's episode we talk to Kevin and his oldest son Durham about the 1 year challenge and all that it entailed. We also talk about Nashville, how Kevin came to be the pastor at Crosspoint and many other topics. It was so fun to talk to them both and I am very thankful that they came by and let me interview them. It's such a unique and inspiring challenge that Kevin and his wife Rea put out their for their boys and I loved learning more about it. Durham is definitely one of my favorite guest we have had on the podcast so far and his answers were as good as it gets. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed sitting down and chatting with these fantastic guys.

Kim Glenn is one of those people in life that instantly makes you smile every time you see her. She was born on the east coast in Virginia Beach and started running in junior high. In this episode we talk all about her running, her favorite races, her education, and her career. We also talk plenty about back in the day when we were coworkers at Fleet Feet and became friends. Kim like many other guest we have had so far is one of the first names that I wrote down that I hoped to interview before I started this podcast. She is super fun, super personable and super interesting to talk to. The energy that she brings to life, running and those around her is contagious and she is such a joy to know.

Thanks as always for listening everyone and thanks to Kim for being such a great guest.

I’ve known Drew for years now. While there was no doubt in my mind this podcast would be entertaining, Drew has gone next-level. He has a gift for unbiased camaraderie and communication, which is apparent in the diversity and candor of guests he interviews. That said, interviewing people effectively is both a complex art and science, and Drew is not only a natural, but he improves his craft every episode. He does a great job of balancing entertainment with also finding the nuggets of truth in his guests that make them unique and interesting to us as listeners. Every time Drew releases a new episode, I bump it immediately to the top of the stack to enjoy on my next long run. Do it!

Definitely listen - Quality interviews

Drew is the bomb! He does such a great job of highlighting the best of the running community in the 615!

Margie Stoll is one of the sweetest ladies you will ever meet. Unless you are racing against her on the track or on the roads where you are her competition. Margie has always loved to run but it wasn't until she turned 60 that she decided to try racing. That's when it all started for her and she has been winning races ever since. Margie was elected into the USATF Masters hall of fame in 2014 and we had a lot of fun talking about running and her life. If you need some inspiration to keep getting after it .... this episode is for you. Chances are you have seen this little lady out at some of the local races here in Nashville. Listen to her story and tell her hello next time you see her.

Scott Bell is one of the best, he is always smiling, he is always in a good mood and knowing him makes life more fun. His running career has been a huge success story. He has run every distance you can run ... from a 5k to a 100 mile race. Yes you read that correctly Scott has completed a 100 mile race ... twice! In this episode we talk about his running career, what running an ultra marathon feels like and how he went from a gym rat to a trail guy. Scott is huge family guy and is one of my best friends. Scott was very influential in helping me get this podcast started and it was great to sit down and chat with him about running, music and Nashville.

James Crumlin

James Crumlin is the man. He is the founder and Man in charge of the Capitol Steps Workout here in Nashville which happens every Monday and Thursday at 6:00pm. James is an 8 time Ironman finisher, a runner, a coach, a lawyer and a huge ambassador of the Nashville fitness community. James spends a large amount of his time encouraging and cheering on others and he is one of the most humble guys I know. I loved getting to spend an hour with him talking about life, fitness, music and Nashville. I am quite certain you will enjoy hearing James talk about his story as well.
