In this episode of Le Run Down, we had the privilege of speaking with Canadian Olympian and elite distance runner, Lanni Marchant.
Running was a punishment when she started out as a figure skater, but today it's the sport she loves most.
We discuss her early struggles with sports, mental health, her journey to Rio, and how she’s handled the last 3 years recovering from multiple surgeries. Despite all that, she sounds more driven than ever to line up for the Olympic Games in Tokyo next summer.
