This week I'm joined by the founder of running apparel company Outrun The Dark, Siggy.
When I started becoming an active runner I used it to escape some of the hard times I was having in my personal life. Once my feet hit the pavement, or treadmill, I was lifted out of the darkness that was going on and I focused solely on my run and progress. I didn't realize at the time how many other people used running to outrun their own demons.
Through social media I came across an apparel company called Outrun The Dark. After looking into it I realized it's so much more than shirts and sweatshirts. It was a community of people that used running to help battle through their own darkness.
Outrun The Dark was founded by a Norwegian man named Siggy. He had the idea while he was running through some of his own darkness. What he's been able to build over the last decade has been nothing short of amazing.
I was able to catch up with Siggy to learn more about his personal story, how Outrun the Dark came together and how the community great around it.
