Chrissy Horan - Freelance Writer and Running Enthusiast - Episode 275

Episode 275 - Chrissy Horan - Freelance Writer and Running Enthusiast 

“For me, running became a kind of game…I ran to the next bridge….then the next…” “My favorite part of the Boston Marathon…it sends the tingle up your spine.” 

“...I first started writing a blog…but I love writing human interest stories…” Chrissy Horan  

In today’s episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, let’s welcome running enthusiast and freelance writer, Chrissy Horan. Chrissy, a Long Island native, who also happens to be Christine’s childhood volleyball teammate, is here to share how her unexpected love for running led her to become an experienced marathon runner, volunteer, fundraiser and freelance writer. Chrissy, a former obesity researcher, claims to have always “dreaded running” until she moved to Boston in 2000 and began running along the historic Charles River. For Chrissy, her competitive nature enabled her to turn her running into “a kind of game,” running just a little farther each run. Fast forward, Chrissy Horan has established herself as a runner who not only takes pride in raising funds and awareness for charities such as the Alzheimer’s Association, but also writing about current research and human interest stories related to the sport. Chrissy’s articles have been featured in Runner’s World, the Boston Globe, Women’s Running and Boston.com. In fact, she even wrote an amazing evidence-based article shedding light on the benefits of running to fight Rheumatoid Arthritis that featured a cameo by one of the “Fit

Crazies.” Learn more about Chrissy Horan and read her latest blogs and articles at www.ChrissyHoran.com.

-Joe Strummer

Happy Summer! In this long-awaited episode, Christine and Brian FINALLY reconnect to shed some light on their latest projects and antics. Tune in to hear Christine dish out what’s new with Let’s FACE It Together™, FallPROOF™, arthritis fitness, eating disorder courses, and of course, the book that drops in January 2021. More details to come about SPLIT-SECOND COURAGE in the next few months! Next up, Brian wins the “MOST AWESOME HUMAN AWARD” as he shares his experience watching his two youngest sons win a baseball championship, offers his time to coach youth running clinics, and fixes bike tires for neighborhood kids. If that does not warm your heart, listen up as Brian reveals how he practically founded the Joe Strummer Foundation Runners with a simple email. And yes, we are talking about “the” Joe Strummer from the CLASH who will forever live on through his music and the meaningful work of his foundation. If you are a runner, or even if you are not, listen closely to hear about this amazing foundation and how to get involved! Take it from Joe Strummer, “people can change anything they want to, and that means everything in the world.”
