Finding Community in Running with Founder of A Running List Lauren Mantha

Lauren Mantha is a local Toronto runner who created a simple
solution to a common problem with her website, A Running List.
What started as an Instagram post about the running clubs in her
area has transformed into a full website mapping out running
communities globally and their meeting times. Her mission is to
make the sport more accessible to everyone by making this
information more accessible. 


Lauren only started running in 2023 to raise money for children’s
hospitals but flash forward one year and her website has been
featured in the Canadian Running News and helped many runners
discover new running communities. Lauren sat down with us to
discuss her journey in creating this website including topics
such as:


Why running clubs are an important part of the running
community 

How an Instagram post about running clubs became a mapping
tool for running clubs across the globe

How A Running List is helping to make running clubs more
accessible

How runners can find running communities that suit them best

How to make joining a new running club less daunting 



Lauren has a really cool story to share about A Running List. She
is every bit as passionate about helping others as she is about
running so I’m excited to share that story with you.

TIMELINE


Improving your mitochondria is one of the easiest ways to upgrade
your performance and make your body work better. 


Time-line Nutrition's Mitopure is backed by over a decade of
research and is clinically proven to revitalize
mitochondria. 


Mitopure restores mitochondrial function, so every cell in your
body has the energy to do its job and keep you healthy and
functioning right. In fact, clinical studies have shown that
500mg of Urolithin, one of the main ingredients in Mitopure, can
significantly increase muscle strength & endurance with no
other change in lifestyle.


Improving your mitochondria is one of the best things you can do
for your health and with Mitopure from time-line nutrition, it
has never been easier.
