About Jen, podcast host: I am an avid runner, ultrarunner, iron distance triathlete, running coach, and owner of a running specialty store called RunWell (in Edwardsville, IL).

Stories about the will and determination of ordinary people setting forth on a transformational journey to learn something about themselves, to test themselves...That is my jam!

Where Do You RunWell? Podcast, Episode 4-"Ray Turpin always goes the extra mile for others...Today, she went 50 miles for herself."
Ray is quiet and she is kind. She has soldiered through some things in her life that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy...and yet she smiles. She loves. In 2017, Ray was grieving the loss of her wife, when I talked her into crewing for me at the Prairie Spirit Ultra. It was then that the fire was ignited.
Ray decided she was coming back to run her own ultra when she turned 50...and she meant it. Tune in to hear her story as told by her and her crew. You don't want to miss this!
