Booking Overview

A field-recorded interview show focused on New York City running culture, it features spontaneous conversations with runners, local run-club leaders, and other people encountered at running spots across the five boroughs. Agencies could credibly pitch NYC-area athletes, coaches, race organizers, run-club founders, and community fitness leaders with compelling running stories; booking difficulty is very low because the show actively welcomes accessible participants rather than requiring major-name prominence.
