RunHard Podcast | Ep. 01 – Running in France, Getting Chased by a Horse, and Why Local Loops Matter

In this inaugural episode, Cody and Reist Mummau (aka the RunHard Brothers) kick things off with stories from recent runs in France and at home in Lynchburg. From dodging horses on countryside trails to finding joy in the same ol’ 5-mile loop, the guys unpack why running has become more than just a hobby—it's a lens on life, faith, and friendship.

They talk Strava heat maps, packing tips for running while traveling, and why everyone—no matter your pace—has a place in the running community.

Whether you’re training for a marathon, jogging after the kids, or still wondering if you're “really a runner,” this one's for you.

🎯 Topics include:

• Running in Paris, Nice, and the French countryside

• The joys (and drama) of running at home

• Strava tools, heat maps, and how we find new routes

• Packing light and running smart on the road

• Chasing goals, surviving dogs, and embracing the slow miles
