Episode 18 – Jess Movold, Runner's World Coach and Mile High Run Club Instructor (LIVE)

Runners of NYC Podcast

You've probably seen her on the latest cover of Runner's World. There's a chance that she's blown past you during a race while wearing her Streets 101 singlet. Maybe you've taken one of her classes at The Fort or Mile High Run Club? Jess Movold is everywhere and now you get to learn her story. We were honored to welcome and host Jess for our first-ever LIVE podcast in front of an audience. She takes us all the way back to Hermann, Missouri to tell us about her upbringing with her father and two sisters. Her journey makes its first stop in New York City as an unexpected intern for Tommy Hilfiger and that's when she picks running back up as a means of commuting and not getting bored. On this show, she'll take us through some of the challenges from her professional and personal life as well as funny stories about her first marathon, getting lost and having just $4 for a Gatorade during a 22-miler and the big reveal of being on the cover of Runner's World.
