This episode covers how the local running community can protect the Kentucky trails they love. First, Meredith McKinney from ASICS breaks down the latest tech in the Cumulus 28 and the highly anticipated Superblast 3, while explaining how ASICS is integrating recycled materials and carbon-tracking into their manufacturing.

Then, Chrissie Balding from Lexington’s Sustainability Section introduces Common Threads Lex and their upcoming free screening of Microplastic Madness. She discusses the reality of plastic pollution in Kentucky’s waterways and offers practical ideas for runners looking to reduce their environmental footprint.
