Justin Grunewald | Dry January, Sponsorship Landscape, & Tarawera

Justin Grunewald is a professional runner and physician, living in Boulder, CO. At the end of January, Justin posted about his experience giving up alcohol for a month and how it impacted his running and personal health. His post resonated with me and created a great opportunity to finally have Justin on the podcast. Topics covered:

• Dry January
• Justin's observation of alcoholism as a physician
• How giving up alcohol impacted his training, relationships, and mood
• The importance of moderation
• The sponsorship landscape in trail running
• Agents in pro trail running
• Justin's training for Tarawera and goals for the season
• A lot more!
