Hi, I'm Olympian Carrie Tullifson and welcome to the C-Tolly Run podcast.

Today I'm interviewing Heidi Greenwood.

Heidi is a 2016 U.S. Marathon Trials Qualifier and the 2008 NCAA Division II National Champion in the 1500 meters.

In this episode, we talk about her running, her new personal training business,

and the Angel Baby Mile at the Fargo Marathon, which is an opportunity to honor babies

that have been lost at any point during pregnancy or birth.

Heidi is an amazing woman, and I can't wait for you to get to know her story. Let's get

after it. Well, Heidi, thanks for being on C-Tolly Ron. We're so excited to have you. Thank you for

having me. This is really exciting. Well, you know, the last time you and I really talked, it was before

you were wearing your Wazel kit and we

chatted about you in the professional world of running yes that's right when I first moved out to

ohio I was um really thinking about dabbling in um the competitive um you know arena of road racing.

And yeah, so I had some connections to you.

And so I got your phone number and you had talked to me and given me some advice and a little bit of guidance.

So that was really, really nice of you to do.

Well, I've used you a lot as an example because I remember like distinctly saying,

okay, I'm going to tell you to you how it is. And I gave you some like, what I felt was like kind

of hardcore advice. Like yeah, at the time you had been running fast, but I said, you need to be

able to qualify for nationals, which you ended up qualifying for the Olympic trials, not too long after. But I was kind of like, this is the stuff you need to do. Like, contracts don't just come

out and happen for everyone, even though you were super fast and you won at nationals and college

and things like that. But I don't know how you left that conversation, but I felt like, wow,

I was pretty direct in that
