    Finding Your Next Podcast Obsession

    December 10, 2018

    Podcasts became my addiction while training for my first long distance races. There is only so much music you can listen to while you run for hours on end! What started as something to listen to while working out became part of my daily routine while walking to class and doing chores at home.

    October 8, 2018
