"What I really took to from the beginning was the team aspect. I really love having this group of friends. I loved the release you get from running...And it really brought out my personality."If you're a member of the DC running community, you've likely heard of Pacers Running. Perhaps you've bought a pair of shoes from one of their stores, run a Pacers race, or participated in a Monday night group run. Behind the scenes, Elyse Braner, Pacers Running Director of People and Culture, is the one organizing events and building community.  In this episode, Elyse delves into how she grew into her current role and has worked to make the running group more inclusive. She also highlights details about the upcoming DC Half and other upcoming Pacers events.Elyse also talks about her personal movement journey, from being a shy 14-year-old with sneakers from K-Mart to a 3:06 marathoner to (most recently) a triathlete. We spoke about the courage it takes to try something new (maybe an open water swim or your first half marathon), and we speak about the fun stuff (hokey pokeys before races...).As always, thanks to Dan Hoffman for the soundtrack, and thanks to Elyse for recording.

Episode 7 - Elyse Braner on Running Community

Jenny Wu

It’s beginner’s season.  Well, actually it’s always beginner season for us because there is always a race to learn to TRI.   For the month of June, we will highlight beginners as they share their stories.  It’s the modern-day race report if you digg.   This week’s featured beginners are: Elyse Braner, Jessica Long, and Jenny Wu Elyse and Jessica are teammates on Capital Y-Tri Team.  They experienced the same struggle and barrier to entry: swimming.  (How many of you new and tri-curious can relate?) However, both former collegiate athletes come to the tri world in search of a “Challenge”.  The value of a newbie program proves invaluable experience and education and gives them a supportive community and team atmosphere to help them overcome obstacles and give it their best Tri.  Jenny Wu is a firecracker who underestimated triathlons. She realized quickly it isn’t as easy as it seems.  She also learned the importance of reading the Athlete’s Guide.  You can see where this is going and it only gets better.  Don’t forget to leave a review, share it with your friends, and Follow Tri Beginner's luck on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.  And send any questions or feedback you have to  imreadyto@tribeginnersluck.com.     Cheers to defying the odds and being trailblazers,  Let’s Tri this!
