| 0:00.0 | Hi everyone. Welcome back to Post Run Hi. Today's episode is a bit of a twist because instead of our usual post run chat, I took a walk through Central Park with Chris Cuomo and the conversation was truly just too good not to share as a full podcast episode in addition to my typical short form videos. |
