People You Meet Running | August Edition
Saturday, August 22
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 Crystal Emmanuel-Ahye and Sarah Donaldson, 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
Crystal Emmanuel-Ahye — 4x Olympian, 2x Pan American medalist, World Championship finalist, and one of Canada's fastest female sprinters for over a decade.
Sarah Donaldson — Fuelling breakthroughs at Maurten, coaching runners to their full potential, and building community.
Spots are limited - this is meant to be an intimate space to connect.
