Roberta Groner ran track in high school and college, but her heart wasn’t in it. After graduating, she put running aside, only to return to it more than a decade later as a way to find solace in a busy life. Talent doesn’t go away, and it very quickly became apparent that Roberta is an exceptionally talented runner. Something was different this time around, though, and it wasn’t her training pace. Instead, she found the passion, love, and appreciation for the sport that had been missing in college, and those qualities are fueling her on a journey that is captivating the running community. Her performances exemplify the perfect alchemy of preparedness, focus, determination, confidence, gratitude, curiosity, flexibility, and…chill. This episode is about seizing opportunity, experiencing the joy of running, and feeling gratitude for the journey.
