Summary

“I got to be a little brother and a big fan.”

Happy Valentine's Day, and welcome to the final day of Love on the Run Week on the Ali on the Run Show! Today, we're wrapping things up with the best-loved brothers in running: Meb and Hawi Keflezighi. On this episode, Meb and Hawi talk about their childhoods, share stories of emigrating to the U.S. from Eritrea, and talk about their brother-turned-professional relationship (Hawi is Meb's agent). At the end of this week, I hope this series has made you laugh, smile, and feel the love!

Love in all of its forms. From running couples to best running friends to superstar sisters

0:32.9

on the run, I have so loved hearing all of these very sweet stories and I hope they've given
