Running Dialogue
Follow us and our Running Dialogue podcast as we explore - not just running, walking, and training - but a wide range of topics related to physical, mental, and social wellbeing. Whether you're new to Crim or have been a fan for years, this podcast offers something for everyone.
The podcast is hosted by the Crim Fitness Foundation, an organization dedicated to improving wellbeing across Flint & Genesee County. What began as a 10-mile road race in Flint in 1977 has grown into a cornerstone of the community, with events like the signature HAP CareSource Crim Festival of Races, Crim Training Program, and other year-round programs in sports, mindfulness, nutrition, and neighborhood impact that engage over 20,000 residents annually.

Chasing The Invisible Finish Line
We are joined, on this episode, by Bill Thena, Learning & Development Manager at Financial Plus Credit Union. Bill tells us about a unique new program that was started at FPCU called A Race Around Michigan. He shares how this program challenged employees to walk or run the entire distance of the 1100 mile perimeter of the state in teams of 2 or 4. We discuss how virtual races & programs like these help keep people active remotely throughout the year while pushing towards a distant goal.
