Ep.16
"From here to there"

with Nils Arend

“People asks me this all the time, its like ‘do you get better at running?’ And I mean, you get faster eventually, potentially, maybe. I think what you get better at it’s in finding comfort in the uncomfortable.” — Nils Arend

Here, we introduce the new host of the Beyond Running podcast, Alex Dickinson, and sit down with Nils Arend. Nils is a co-founder of the speed project, a lifelong creative, and a rebel runner. Having just completed The Speed Project, Alex digs into the roots of the race, from surf trips around the world to point-to-point journeys in LA. The pair discuss the future of running, mindfulness on the road, and inclusivity.

OUR HOST: ALEX DICKINSON

 

Alex Dickinson is a writer, runner, and a yoga and meditation teacher. He approaches running and yoga practice with a similar mindset—as ways to connect mind and body, explore internal and external landscapes, and simply feel better. He finds the pairing of the pursuits is greater than the sum of its parts. It’s his mission to share the gifts of these practices fairly and equitably, with a great deal of respect for the roots of the practice and those who have passed it down the generations.
