E85: Michael Owen, running and race directing SEOTR events
Michael Owen is an legend with Ohio runners. He has a long history of running on the trails after he got his first taste of it, back in college. He then started SEOTR, Southeast Ohio Trail Runners, which is an event group that now helps to host 10 races across the state. His races range from one mile to 100. And if you want to go farther, then he is the race director for OBU, Ohio's Backyard Ultra, that can go for more than 200 miles! We chat about how there is a stigma thinking that Ohio is flat, but Michael hosts some very challenging hilly races that Ohio has to offer. His races also have a very family vibe and it keeps runners coming back year after year. Great chat with Michael and I hope you enjoy it!

E84 Team Cox; Shane & Nathan Cox; the father-son running duo
Shane and Nathan Cox are a father-son duo that are a force to be reckoned with. Shane was a great running mentor to his son Nathan while Nathan was younger. Nate then went on to run collegiately with Shawnee State. The other thing you will notice with them at races is that they give 100% effort from start to finish. I have known them for a while and it was great to sit down and chat with both of them about what they get out of the sport.
