People You Meet Running | September Edition

​Saturday, September 26

​People You Meet Running is a Saturday morning conversation series by A Running List, hosted at Ratelier.

​This month's conversations are with special guests Larry Lau and Andrew Hechanova, moderated by ARL founder Lauren Mantha.

​What to Expect

​The idea is simple: sit down with people doing interesting things in and around the running - to talk about what they're building, how they got here, and why running is so central to how they live, create, and show up every day.

​This Month’s Conversations With

​Larry Lau – an entrepreneur, investor, and the Co-Founder & CEO of RunMore, a company building a comprehensive ecosystem for runners across health, retail, technology, and community. He’s working to rethink how runners connect with their health and the sport, bringing together the different parts of the running experience in a more connected way. Running came into Larry’s life later, but has since become an important part of how he stays active, builds community, and connects with people.

Andrew Hechanova – a runner, developer, and the head of Product and Analytics of RunMore, a company building a comprehensive ecosystem for runners across health, retail, technology, and community. After leaving his corporate background at Tim Hortons and Bell, he’s now innovating new ways for runners to understand their performance, connect with their communities, and run injury free. While Andrew spends most of his running time training for the next marathon with friends, he loves to go on easy runs catching up on podcasts and finding the newest k-pop hit.

​Spots are limited - this is meant to be an intimate space to connect.
