Allegra Krasznekewicz & the Javelina Jundred ft. Edward Quinn
In S2Ep19 of the PRP, Adam prattles with blossoming ultra runner, pleasantly intense organizational czar, passionate nature enthusiast and proud dog mama Allegra Krasznekewicz who has been preparing for the Javelina Jundred on October 29th, 2022. The PRP listenership is regaled with an invigorating review of what she has been up to since we last heard from her in Season 1. Some great races and experiences no doubt, but more importantly, Allegra shares some stoic insight into what she has discovered under the surface level of the sport that she never expected to find. Allegra gets vulnerable when she reflects on the courage that it takes to prioritize one’s hobby to such an extreme extent in a society that often times frowns upon one’s career not being the number one priority in life.
Edward Quinn, emerging runner, king of chill, design big wig and Allegra’s better half joins the show to offer his tranquil and inspiring opinions on the intense grit his wife has displayed towards the sport over the past year of her life. For him, running is more about just getting out there rather than performing at a high level - a viewpoint that helps provide a proper yin and yang to their household.
Allegra then deep dives on a thought she has been percolating on recently surrounding connecting her why to something bigger than just bettering herself personally. Running has changed so many aspects of her life, has connected her to an amazing community, and has taught her that she can be more than she ever thought she could be. It’s these reasons that have lead her to feel increasingly motivated to find ways to help spread and share the power of running with others who have not yet discovered the compelling and immeasurable effects that running can wield.

Is Strava the last remaining troll-free social media platform?! What are the seasons of life and why are they so important to constantly consider? All of this and oh so much more in this inspiring and synergetic episode of the PRP.
