RED Episode 163: Jeff Galloway, Here’s to a Speedy Recovery

This is a very special episode of the Run Eat Drink Podcast, and it was recorded live on Monday, April 27, 2021.

Our coach and America’s Coach, Jeff Galloway, had a heart attack this past week.  We found out about it and wanted to support, honor, and encourage him.  He’s always meant so much to the running community and to us.  It is time for us to return the favor.

Many of you sent in pictures and stories.  We share some of our own.  We received special messages from fellow podcasters and important icons in the running community, like Kathrine Switzer and Bart Yasso.

Let’s keep it going.  Our virtual “get well soon” card with motivational stories and photos has become a page on our website that you can submit content to, and we will post it for Jeff.  Submit photos, videos, and written stories via info@runeatdrink.net or call and leave a message at (941) 677-2733.  

Then you can visit and share www.runeatdrink.net/jeff so that others may see the incredible impact he’s had on the running and run-walk-run community.

Jeff, here’s to your speedy recovery!  We will run-walk-run with you again soon!  Take your time, take your walk breaks, and finish your recovery strong.  We will be there, at the finish, when you are ready.

THAT’S A WRAP! - Here’s hoping you are off to a great year in 2021!
