#13 - Ashley Mahoney: Chasing A Goal

🚨Episode 22: Adam Bratton🚨 Recently, I’ve been thinking about how cool it would be to run or workout with a guest before recording a podcast episode. Sure enough, that’s exactly what Adam suggested when we discussed doing a podcast together. I highly recommend it and plan to do the same thing going forward! Today’s guest is the founder of Human Powered Movement.  🧐What is Human Powered Movement? It is a culmination of MANY things, which Adam and I discuss.  Its mission: to inspire more activity in people’s lives.  Adam is the race director for their events which includes bike and running races - including MOVE, a bike and running race which is happening THIS WEEKEND, see website link below for details 🏁 It was an honor to hang out with Adam and talk all things HPM, running, and adventures - all while enjoying some of his home-brewed beer. He’s built a great company that wants to help people, the community, and the planet in every possible way.  I can’t wait to run in my first HPM event this year and join in on the fun! Also, check out their Strava Club and YouTube channel!

EPISODE 18 On deck: OBX Half Marathon Recap Kentucky Derby Half Marathon race/weekend recap Upcoming Time Laps 24HR Race Preview Fall Marathon Reveal 👀 OBX I shocked myself by running the last mile under a 7 pace and was pumped how I made adjustments mid-race to achieve my goal. Sometimes solving the problem along the way can be more fun than achieving the goal. When you do both, it makes for a great weekend and leaves you hungrier for more! Kentucky Derby Half Chris achieved the 30 miles before turning age 30 with Lucas and I running alongside him for the first 7.5 miles. Going into the race, I wasn’t sure how my legs would hold up with the pace Chris wanted to run but they got the job done baby. It ended up being my second fastest half! This made me even more confident about my current fitness level and even more jazzed for my upcoming fall marathon.  Episode is short and sweet. Enjoy ✌🏼

Running, and this podcast, has allowed me to meet some incredible people around Charlotte.  We all share the love of running and pushing ourselves to the limit. However we all have a different reason as to why we started down this path. Tony’s story is unique and shows how strong he is. We all get knocked down. What matters is that we get back up. Tony did that and much more. It was a pleasure to meet and hang out with him. In this podcast, he and I cover: 🏃How he became a runner 💪🏼Dealing with adversity 🥇Completing his first 100 miler a few weeks ago Enjoy ✌🏼

Rachel and I cover her journey through college and how she became a vegan and avid runner. She's accomplished some great goals already and is gearing up for a big year!

¡EPISODE 15! As one of the owners of @charlotterunningcompany, you’ve probably ran into @mr_chandler at one of their stores or many races throughout the year. I was lucky enough to sit down with him and discuss a few topics including his journey to becoming one of the owners of Charlotte Running Company.  He and the team at CRC are what make Charlotte such a great RUNNING CITY!! You can visit one of their 4 locations for all your running needs or see their website to shop and check out their events and race calendar for the year. “Every day is a good day” - Harry ✌🏼 . . . #EveryDayIsAGoodDay #cltrunning #cltrunner #runningpodcast #cltpodcast #charlottepodcast #charlotterunningcompany #runner #running #charlotte

I had big goals for the race, but they have slightly changed. Listen in to learn more!
