For Lena Andersson, running is about more than health and fitness. It’s a way to see the world that she’s sharing through her tour company Go! Running Tours.
Go! Running Tours is a global tour provider that connects traveling runners with like-minded locals who are passionate about sharing their culture.
During this conversation, Lena chats about the story behind this tour group including:

- How Lena traded in her corporate job to start a global running company
- What are Lena’s favorite places in the world to run

Running tours are a great way to see the world that’s better for the environment and local cities.
Go! Running Tours started with a dream of showing people around Copenhagen but you’ll hear how it transformed into a global agency with 50+ destinations. If you’re a lover of running or travel then you’re going to want to hear her story.

This week’s show brought to you by:
Previnex Greens
It’s not surprising that gut health is one of the primary issues we face as runners.
As any runner who hits the road or trail and constantly fears having to go to the bathroom can attest to, it’s not a fun issue to deal with.
That’s why we’ve recently switched from AG1 to Previnex Gut and Greens Superfoods.
Gut and Greens Superfoods are loaded with some of the most well-researched and science-supported gut and GI boosting ingredients, such as Solnul, and GutGuard.
Solnul is clinically studied, multi-function fiber that repairs gut lining to support optimal digestion and GI health.
GutGard is a clinically researched, flavonoid-rich, natural bioactive that supports reducing inflammatory markers, increasing gut integrity, and balancing the gut microbiome.
So if you’ve struggled with gut problems on the run, head to runnersconnect.net/greens to check out Gut and Greens Superfoods and see the difference for yourself.
To make it a no-brainer, you can use the code RTTT15 to save 15% on your first order and they offer a 100% money back guarantee.
MetPro
Using Metabolic Profiling, MetPro’s team of experts analyzes your metabolism and provides an individualized approach to obtaining your goals.
Your MetPro coach then works with you to consistently make adjustments based on your metabolic data as well as how your plan fits your lifestyle.

They will work one-on-one with you to identify the best nutrition and fitness strategy that is going to work for your personal goals and lifestyle needs.
