Strides: A Trail Running Podcast

Jimmy Segura's mindset for running is rooted in routine, with a sprinkle of zeal. 

Jimmy sat down with me not long after completing a 100-miler at Rocky Raccoon in January—his first completion at the coveted distance.

However, Jimmy is always looking for bigger challenges. In this conversation, we discuss how he was first introduced to running and how proximity to his favorite trail spot in San Antonio influenced his training. Then, we dive into the special nuances of how Jimmy trains for his races. 

We cap off the conversation with an ode to the San Antonio running community. 

As always, I hope you enjoy.
