He overcame adversity far before getting into running, pushing forward through his diagnosis and treatment for Gardner's Syndrome.

He used running as a way to improve his health and quickly realized endurance was for him. From marathons, to 100 milers and now the Canadian 48 hour record, he's inspiring the run community and proving that we are all capable of so much more than we think.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had a fun conversation with professional triathlete, Katie Zaferes.

Katie was a natural runner growing up becoming a multi-time cross country champion in High School. She was later identified by the USA Triathlon Recruitment Program and never looked back.

She's been competing at the Elite level for almost 10 years now and has shown steady progress throughout her career. Katie thought that starting a family would slow her down but instead it's fueled her fire for competition.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had a nice fun chat with comedic content creator and distance runner, Laura Green.

She loves to run and crack jokes and combines those two passions to create hilarious reels for all of us to enjoy.

Laura pokes fun at all the quirky things runners do and think about, during training or leading up to a race. She reminds us to laugh, lighten up, and just have fun.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had an inspiring chat with Ultra Runner and creator of End2End, Alexis Limoges.

He started with 3 kilometer runs around his house but slowly increased his distance and saw there was so much more to discover the further he went.

Alexis continued to develop that passion, growing through the sport and is trying to help those who aren't so lucky. Creating End2End has allowed him to not only push his own personal limits but raise funds for local charities as well.

On this episode of Le Run Down we discuss fueling with Ultra Trail Runner, David Jeker.

David's first love was cycling, embarking on long multiday tours to travel and explore Europe. He still uses the bike to commute but now it's more of a way to get to exciting run destinations.

He's an exceptional endurance athlete but what makes David even more interesting is his keen understanding of fueling and how it affects performance. It's a topic I've been very curious about lately and I can't wait to share his knowledge with you all.

On this episode of Le Run Down I enjoyed a great conversation with Elite Distance runner and Mile2Marathon coach, Justin Kent.

Justin played all sports growing up but decided to turn his focus to running. With the influence of his father and coach's, he's been able to grow up through the sport in a positive way.

He holds speedy times in the 1500 meters all the way up to the marathon and he races all distances to keep himself sharp for any challenge. His ultimate goal is to make an Olympic team, slowly building year after year in pursuit of his own personal potential.

On this episode of Le Run Down I spoke with Canada's best 10K runner, Benjamin Flanagan.

Ben played all sports growing up but showed some promise in X country back in high school. It's there that the dream to one day make an Olympic team was born.

He currently hold Canada's 10k record and many other titles. And most recently took home his 3rd win at the Falmouth road race. Seems like he's gaining momentum at the perfect time, as he looks to seize this opportunity and make his first Olympic appearance in Paris 2024.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had a fun chat with Ultra Trail Runner, Joshua Ferenc.

I was fortunate to meet Josh a few years back at Ultra Trail Harricana in Charlevoix Quebec and his energy was contagious. He's got a love and passion for the sport that's hard to beat.

He's taken on many challenging races and always gives it his all, most recently tackling the TransRockies and finishing 3rd, after taking the title back in 2021. He takes that same work ethic and applies it to all aspects of life, whether it be his marriage, his kids or his students in the classroom too.

On this episode of Le Run Down I spoke with marathoner and Tracksmith Marketing Manager, Drew Hartman.

Growing up it was all about soccer for Drew. It was only when he realized he couldn't live out his childhood dream that running took center stage.

Now he's tackling his personal goal of running 10 marathons before his 30th birthday, and using his role with Tracksmith to help grow communities and provide positive experiences wherever he can.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had a smooth chat with distance runner and elite marathoner, Dakotah Lindwurm.

She actually didn't start out as a runner but had dreams of making it big as an ice hockey goaltender. The running started as a way to have a more balanced approach to sport.

Dakotah's love for running was a gradual progression, sticking with it, making improvement's year after year but most of all, having fun. Whether it's a world major or Olympic qualifier, she can always be seen with a smile across her face.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had a smooth chat with distance runner and elite marathoner, Dakotah Lindwurm.

She actually didn't start out as a runner but had dreams of making it big as an ice hockey goaltender. The running started as a way to have a more balanced approach to sport.

Dakotah's love for running was a gradual progression, sticking with it, making improvement's year after year but most of all, having fun. Whether it's a world major or Olympic qualifier, she can always be seen with a smile across her face.

On this episode of Le Run Down we discussed all things running with distance runner and Uptempo Running co-founder, Shadoe Huard.

He's been passionate about sports since he can remember and used running as a way to stay in shape for his first love which was basketball.

Shadoe's enjoyment for running only came later but now uses it as a vehicle for inner growth and personal development. It's even lead him to the creation of a run group that provides all runners with the power to discover and explore their potential through movement.

On this episode of Le Run Down we enjoyed a great conversation with trail runner and ultra endurance athlete, David Kilgore.

From a young age, running was a way for David to enjoy nature and explore the outdoors. As a teen he was able to shift that passion to track and field but managed to keep it fun while racing competitively.

Fast forward and he's now taking on ultra distances, nurturing his light heartedness towards the sport with challenges, and generating funds for charities in need.

On this episode of Le Run Down I spoke with amputee ultrarunner and cancer survivor, Jacky Hunt-Broersma.

Originally from South Africa, she moved around a lot before eventually calling Arizona her home. In 2001 a cancer diagnosis required the amputation of her leg, but eventually she found running which gave her a new outlook on life.

Today she holds multiple endurance records as an amputee runner. Most recently completing 104 marathons in 104 straight days for charity, proving that we are all capable of extraordinary things.

As a kid Caroline was always interested in discovering nature and outdoors. These days she uses running as a way to prepare herself for new challenges and expeditions she's about to face.

She's an amazing talent and person, capturing beautiful images in some of the most remote and untouched areas on our planet. Her passion is her life, one that allows her to feel fulfilled every day.

On this episode of Le Run Down we had the honor of speaking with one of Canada's fastest marathoners and Olympian, Trevor Hofbauer.

Trevor didn't enjoy running track in high school but could see the benefits it gave him for his true passion, basketball.

He continued to run cross country as a way to stay in shape and that developed into so much more. Today, he's one of two Canadians to break the 2 hour 10 minute marathon barrier and has his sites set on Paris 2024.

Nick ran track as a teenager but ended up having a negative association to the sport and decided to give it up for over 5 years. He returned to running to improve his mental and physical health with the goal of racing the Boston Marathon one day.

This year he achieved that goal, toeing the line and completing his first, making that dream become a reality.

On this episode of Le Run Down we talk running in a mindful way with elite marathoner, yoga instructor and writer, Alex Dickinson.

I had the pleasure of meeting Alex just after the California International Marathon last year and knew then he'd be a great guest on the show.

He's a very interesting guy who has found synergy between his two passions, yoga and running. He's also well travelled and isn't scared to switch up his living situation from time to time, even if that means living in a van for a while.

On this episode of Le Run Down, we got to know marathoner, community leader and co-founder of WERUN313, Lance Woods.

Lance moved away from his home town of Detroit to pursue education, and when he returned his focus shifted to bettering his community and sharing his passion for running with everyone.

In only a few years, Lance and his team have built something lasting and life changing through this sport we all love. He's also pursuing his own goals as he prepares to take on his first ever Boston Marathon this spring.

On this episode of Le Run Down we spoke with Elite Marathoner and Olympian, Dayna Pidhoresky.

Growing up Dayna always loved to run but was interested in a variety of sports like soccer, figure skating, and gymnastics. After completing university she decided to invest more time into running and that move paid dividends.

Now after more than 12 years, she's a 10 time national medalist, was named to the Canadian World Champion Team, and most recently competed in her first Olympics in Tokyo.

On this episode of Le Run Down we chat with nonbinary pro triathlete, "The Purple Tiger" Rach McBride.

At an early age they enjoyed running cross country but traded it for something more creative in their early teens.

Rach rediscovered a love for endurance sports in their late 20's, finding early success in the marathon. Then, with the encouragement of a mentor, they began training to become an elite triathlete, turned pro and never looked back.

Even since Jonas could remember he was always interest in exploring and discovery.

His sense for adventure and love of cycling has allowed him to cross many countries and continents in record breaking times. In his latest expedition he circumnavigated the entire world in the longest triathlon of his life, completing the equivalent of 120 ironman. As his book titles "The limit is just me", the sky is the limit for this incredible guy.

On this episode of Le Run Down we talked all things running with marathoner, community leader and "Escape" ultra relay co-creator, Quinton Jacobs.

Quinton is a run enthusiast who's taken on multiple world majors and the Comrades ultra-marathon in South Africa. But this father of three also loves the community and all that it brings.

His most recent adventure, "Escape to Chicago". A multi day relay run, from Toronto to Chi-Town, all caught on tape for an exciting documentary set to release in early 2022.

On this episode of Le Run Down I caught up with adventurer and Elite Ultra Distance runner, Mathieu Blanchard.

Mathieu is some one who I've been able to watch grow fairly quickly in the sport. From intense track sessions to crazy multi hour challenges in and around Montreal, he was preparing for something great.

He's since been able to quit his job to pursue a life as a professional ultra runner. Travelling the world and competing amongst the elites on the international stage.

On this episode of Le Run Down I learnt a bunch about movement and why it's important for runners with triathlete, chiropractor, and elite runner Garrett De Young.

Growing up, he was a multisport athlete who got exposed to a variety of sports, and found himself excelling at running. Competing at a high level helped Garrett see the challenges athletes face and how many lacked general strength and mobility.

He is now a professional in the space, helping athletes to not only move better in sport but also in life.

On this episode of Le Down I had an excellent conversation with ultramarathoner and triathlete, Rob Kemp.

Rob had an active childhood and used running as a way to stay in shape for hockey. But over the years it became so much more.

He's enjoyed a long career in radio and doesn't shy away from long distances either, taking on marathons, Ironman triathlons and most recently, the Bromont Ultra 100 miler. He taught me sometimes it's not about how or if you finish but the pursuit of something far greater. The victory comes from getting to the start.

She's always loved running and even dabbled in triathlon at a very young age, and returning to the sport reunited her with her childhood coach to pursue the marathon.

Despite the pandemic Elissa managed a half marathon and marathon personal best. If she keeps it up, an Olympic qualifier could be within her reach one day.

Fundraiser for Stephanie Catudal by John Peel : Rest up, Tommy, we'll see you soon (gofundme.com)

On this episode of Le Run Down we throw it back to the Boston from 2019, where we sat down with Tommy Rivers Puzey. It was the last time the race was held in-person, over two years ago.

Tommy gratuitously accepted our invitation to chat and shared his journey with us. We spoke about the marathon at length and he let us in to everything that brought him to that point. A lot has happened since then however.

Early in 2020 Tommy was diagnosed with NK T-Cell lymphoma, which is an extremely rare form of cancer. He battled through, fighting for his life and has since made a miraculous recovery. We're blessed that we were able to have spoken to Tommy that weekend in Boston and no doubt, if his body allowed, he'd love to toe the line with his peers at the 125th Boston marathon on Monday.

So whether you're racing this year or just need that extra bit of inspiration, give this episode a listen and enjoy all his wisdom.

On this episode of Le Down we spoke to two time marathon Olympian and now Ultramarathoner, Reid Coolsaet.

Reid has always loved to run. From cross country in elementary to high school on the track he's always loved pushing himself and competing.

Now that his elite marathon days are behind him, Reid is ready to take on the Ultra scene. And with a first place finish in the 110km Quebec Mega Trail race, the future is looking bright.

At an very young age Vasu had his leg amputated but it never stopped him from living a life filled with incredible adventure and challenges.

He's an astonishing multisport athlete, excelling at soccer, skiing, running, skateboarding, and so much more, all while working hard to bring positive change.

On this episode of Le Run Down I caught up with two time Olympian and middle distance Elite runner, Luc Bruchet.

Growing up Luc was competitive and into all sports but really excelled in cross country running.

He's enjoyed a lot of success in the sport and earned his spot on two Olympic teams but his mindset over the years has changed. Now more than even he understands the importance of a balanced life and the positive impact that has on performance, even at the highest level.

She's an incredibly decorated athlete, with 3 different professional careers. But what I found most fascinating was her transition from short track to Ironman's at the pro level all while growing her young family.

Today Malindi is an elite marathoner and is ready to compete at the 2020 Toyko Olympics. 17 years after her first appearance!

For Arden early on, running was a way for her to lose weight and maintain a certain body image. Today, her relationship to running looks much different.

She's an incredible athlete who focused most of her efforts on the trails. Racing distances ranging from 50 miler all the way to 100 and by the end of them, you can usually find her name a top the leader board.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had a great chat with plant-based Ultra Endurance Athlete, Robbie Balenger.

Simply put, Robbie loves to run and push his limits.He's conquered the run across America in 75 days and most recently crushed the fastest known time for loops around central park in 24 hours.

His accomplishments are remarkable but the message he carries about making better food choices and creating more sustainable food sources is just as incredible.

On this episode of Le Run Down I was lucky to connect with marathoner, community leader and Parkdale co-captain, Michelle Kay.

She was more of a sprinter growing up but found an appreciation for distance running after joining the iconic Parkdale Road Runners.

As a leader and organizer, Michelle's been able to inspire those around her, and has been working within the run community to help raise awareness of anti-asian hate and social injustice.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had a great conversation with runner, writer and community builder, Sean Hamilton.

Running is a journey. For Sean, his next step was a 6 month runcation to discover new places on foot, but it was cut short by the pandemic.

Settling in Vancouver, he found the trails and the words to write his first book. He even landed a job with one of the fastest growing brands in running. And with the birth of a run group called "Dark Starts", Sean certainly seems to have found his new home.

On this episode of Le Run Down I caught up with masters sprinter and multiple record holder, Karla Del Grande.

She loved running in school but found a new fire for it in her 40s, and now she's been inducted into two halls of fame and awarded WMA Female Athlete of the decade.

She's the woman who came closest to running her age in the 400 meter, falling short by just one second, and it's something she hopes to achieve later this year.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had an amazing conversation with Pro Skier, Runner and Wings For Life World Run Ambassador, Mike Shaw.

Mike participated in many sports growing up but really excelled at extreme sports and fell in love with free skill skiing. In an instance that love was taken away from him after tragic ski accident left him paralyzed from the neck down.

Miraculously he's been able to recover from his injury and enjoys a pretty normal life, dedicated to helping others. He's now a motivational speaker, runner and yes, he's even been able to hit the slopes, something he never thought would be possible.

He continues to pursue personal excellence in running as he builds a young family and a career in Vancouver. Part of that journey is discovering and sharing stories through running, allowing him to connect with runners from all walks of life.

On this episode of Le Run Down we went on an adventure with ultra distance runner and World explorer Ray Rahab.

Looking at him now you'd never guess he used to be a big smoker and drinker. But in his early 30's he decided he had enough and changed the course of his life.

He's travelled through jungles, extreme cold and grueling heat. Crossed countries, continents and thousands of miles. Including crossing the sahara in 111 days, which opened his eyes to all of life's possibilities.

On this episode of Le Run Down I had a great chat with marathoner, Project Love Run leader and Yamajo run crew co-captain, Marge Jean-Louis.

For Marge, running followed her wherever she went. It started as a way to stay healthy and fit but eventually turned into so much more.

From 10ks and half marathons to major marathons and The Speed Project, preparation was the key to success. And as she continues to chases her own dreams, she's always encouraging others to find self love and compassion through running.

On this episode of Le Run Down I caught up with runner, triathlete and area developer for VeloFIx Quebec, Jeremy Cochrane.

Whether it was competitive hockey and getting a good education or more recently running and multi sport, Jeremy always gave it his 110%.

We'll discuss his journey into endurance sports, the challenges beginners face and all the lessons along the way. It's not always about winning or being the best, in fact for most of us, it's more about enjoying the process and taking what you can on race day.

He grew up with a competitive nature and a desire to win at everything he did, not just in sports. That spirit definitely carried through into his pro marathon career.

We spoke about CJ's incredible showing at the U.S trials, his experience at the marathon project and how his training regiment might be a little crazier than most. He's one of the most promising marathoners in the sport, so don't be surprised if you see his name atop the leader-board in the near future.

She comes from a running family and that influenced her as a kid. As a pro she found early success training out of Glasgow, but eventually returned to North America, where she now trains with the Bowerman Track Club.

It’s so remarkable how much she’s already accomplished in her career and she continues to push herself to become a better athlete each and every day.

]]> On this episode of Le Run Down I had a great chat with multi Canadian record holder and Olympian, Gabriela DeBues-Stafford.

She comes from a running family and that influenced her as a kid. As a pro she found early success training out of Glasgow, but eventually returned to North America, where she now trains with the Bowerman Track Club.

It’s so remarkable how much she’s already accomplished in her career and she continues to push herself to become a better athlete each and every day.

He grew up playing sports as a way to fit in, and only recently started running. After surviving a life threatening illness just over a year ago, running is how he chose to celebrate living and honor the memory of those who have passed.

In episode 14 Kat said "we're just ordinary people doing extra ordinary things." And Hedi's feat of 50 marathons in just over 100 days is nothing short of extraordinary.

Running was something Carrie loved to do from a young age and winning came naturally. But as she moved on to Villanova, the competition got tougher and she leaned on the support of her family to stay strong and grow as an athlete.

She takes us through her journey of National Titles, NCAA champions and eventually the Olympics but her career didn’t end there. Today, she’s a mother of three, a broadcaster and also hosts her own podcast. She’s full of energy and positivity, so we hope you enjoy this up tempo chat.

]]> On this episode of Le Run Down we had an uplifting chat with runner, writer and black roses NYC crew leader, Knox Robinson.

Honestly, it’s hard to wrap this guy into a short introduction. He's multifaceted and our talk spans running, culture, literature, music, and more.

From high school races, to training camps with Kipchoge, Knox shares his wild journey. He’s well spoken, creative and real. You’ll love this conversation, as it’s unlike any other story we’ve told.

His story is one that could be turned into a movie script as his family left a world of poverty and war in Eritrea and made their way to America. He knew that every opportunity was precious, and he did not squander the chance to do something great with his life.

He worked his way up the ranks, earning a silver medal at the olympics and winning the New York City and Boston marathons, but always remained grateful and humble throughout his journey. This episode is a little shorter than most but make sure you listen to every word because just like in running, Meb makes every moment count.

That passion for running is what eventually led to the creation of his running retreat, where he gets to enjoy his passion for running with people from all walks of life in places all over the world. After this episode your next vacation might be a run-cation.

For Peter running is part of his DNA. It was part of his upbringing and he thrived in the culture. After taking a step back from competitive running he returned a few years ago with a new fire and motivation, which eventually turned into his pursuit for a spot on the U.S Olympic Trials Team.

Running was a punishment when she started out as a figure skater, but today it's the sport she loves most. 

We discuss her early struggles with sports, mental health, her journey to Rio, and how she’s handled the last 3 years recovering from multiple surgeries. Despite all that, she sounds more driven than ever to line up for the Olympic Games in Tokyo next summer.

Matt only found running later in life. He moved to New York City to pursue an acting career and was working as a bartender to make a living, which led him down an unhealthy path. He didn’t like who he had become and decided he needed to make a change.

That change was in fact life changing. Running was only a small part of the at the time but five years later, running is all Matt knows. He’s wrapped himself in the new york city run community and pushed his limits further that he ever thought possible. He’s got even bigger dreams on the horizon and if this trend continues, his potential is endless.

He comes from a family of gifted elite athletes and for Nate, it wasn’t any different. He excelled in baseball and his future in the sport looked bright, but suddenly a golf accident took that away.

Nate was paralyzed on his right side but after years of therapy, he found running. He now competes on the world stage as a 800 and 1500meter runner but if not for the support of family and friends, he would not be where he is today. (His words, not ours).

He fell in love with the sport years ago when he won a race he entered in high school and he never looked back. He’s been the Quebec ten thousand meter champ for the last five years but he’s a pretty great marathoner too. Running two hours and twenty two minutes in his elite marathon debut. And his goal is to set the Quebec marathon record one day.

For Francois, running was a sport that helped shape his identity. Something I think we can all relate to one way or another on our own running journey.

Growing up in British Columbia he took a liking to music and eventually got into endurance sports.

It was through sport that he learned that hard work leads to positive results. Those same life lessons translated into the world of ultra running.

I consider Geoff to be one of the strongest runners I know both through his ability to tackle big training weeks and also his mental toughness. He’s got a drive to succeed at everything he does, yet somehow always finds a way to make it fun and enjoyable for those around him.

As a young teenager he took a liking to endurance sports, immersing himself in cross country and cycling. But when he heard about triathlon, that became his focus and becoming the best in the world quickly became his long term goal.

Despite tremendous success as a pro athlete, he decided to step away from the sport he loved. After a long hiatus, he found his love for running again. Although he knows he can’t perform at the same level as once did, Andrew is motivated to break a two hour forty minute marathon before he turns fifty and I have no doubt he’ll get there.

Over the last 6 years she’s carved her place in the run community. She’s a key leader of the run rite athletics club and she now has a run club of her own called Prefontaine. Join us as we talk about everything run and get ready to be inspired.

An event he created just a few years ago.

Darren’s been running for a long time and as he teaches his athletes, has made it a part of his lifestyle. For him, running is a passion, a hobby and he’s also turned it into a career, coaching running all over Toronto.

We discuss how running culture has changed over the years, best training practices, and ways we can strengthen our bodies. You won't want to miss our talk, hope you enjoy!

She went into her first marathon, thinking she was going to do the half the night before and ended up winning it with a time of 2:55:30. That was the 2016 Miami Marathon, and only a year later she managed to shave 25 minutes off her time, finishing 5th in New York.

Allie is resilient, dedicated, and focused on the Olympic trials in Atlanta next February.

#31: Laurent Caudrellier

In this episode of Le Run Down I discuss group running, the November Project and The Speed Project with Laurent Caudrellier.

After trying to make it in the big city of Toronto, it was apparent to him there was very little work-life balance. That’s why he moved back to Montreal and rediscovered himself just two years ago.

Now he’s a community leader. Joining different run groups on a weekly basis, supporting other people's goals, and co-leading the November Project every Wednesday morning in the old port @ 6:29 am. It sounds like that was a life-changer for Laurent, so hopefully, it could help you too.

Growing up he specialized in cross country racing and later on in the 1500m at the collegiate level. He was always a fast guy but when frustrating injuries came into play he was forced to change paths and pursue academics. 

Now Olivier has found his passion for running again, this time through the trails. He's racing for fun, but with talent like his, it’s been tough to keep him off the leaderboard in his first season of ultras.

Rachel's a talented athlete with a powerful story of perseverance. She was denied a spot on the 2016 Olympic Team despite running the 5,000 meter standard. Now she's back stronger than ever with her sights set on 2020 in Tokyo.

He discovered at a young age that his passion was in endurance sports. Antoine split his time between cross country skiing in the winter and short track triathlon in the summer finding that they complemented each other quite well.

Now 25, he’s been racing pro for the last 5 years and has been vegan athlete for just as long. In 2018 he placed 4th at Ironman Mont Tremblant and is looking for a better performance in just a few weeks. We’ll be tracking and cheering him on every step of the way.

He found running when he joined the military as a way to lose weight and reduce stress. Due to a running injury he took up biking, which inevitably led to his first Triathlon.

Completing this first race made him so proud that he quickly decided to sign up for his first Ironman, and the rest is history. He's completed over 30 Ironmans, 9 Ultramans, and the Ride Across America 3 times. Tune in to find out how he got to this point and what fuels his inner fire to succeed.

Wodak grew up playing multiple sports and fell in love with running on the track. Hailing from B.C, she studied in Arkansas on a running scholarship and eventually at Simon Fraser University. She's been running ever since.


Find out how Tasha pushed through setbacks, overcame injuries and found success late in her running career. Tasha is an Olympian and holds the National Record in the 10,000m. She is off to an amazing start for 2019, already winning 5 races. We can’t wait to see what’s next.

She took up running at a very young age, and competed through high school and university. She enjoyed long distance running the most, and won her first coached marathon in Toronto with a time of 2 hours 36 minutes. She went on to improve to a personal best time of 2 hours 32 minutes and earned the Canadian national marathon title. Nicole is now retired from competitive running but she continues to share her passion and knowledge with high performing athletes. Coaching and helping them reach their full potential, the same way she was supported throughout her successful career.

His love for running began in high school, where he immersed himself in cross country racing. From there his dedication only grew.

Seven years ago he did his first spartan race and hasn't looked back. 

He's become one of the top obstacle course athletes in the country, 

and this season he’s aiming even higher.
