Amy Ortiz: Running, More than Miles, Building Community

4d ago 40:28

MP3•Episode home

Welcome Amy Ortiz to WRS! Amy is a runner who, over the past several years, has become a community builder and leader in the running scene, and now she's a coach, with a focus on creating space for women, especially women of color.

In this episode, Amy shares how she arrived where she is today in the running world.

A long-time resident of the Bronx, Amy's running is deeply intertwined with her interest in community building. She’s a founder of the all women run club Bronx Femme Run, a pacer for the No Name program, and she recently completed the NYC Game Changers program.

For Amy, running is more than miles. As she says, "It was the connector of what I was looking for."
