Description

Greg Jensen left behind the typical American lifestyle to pursue his passion and raise his family in a Central American country.

It takes a special type of person to get out of the corporate world, pack up the wife and kids, and move down to Guatemala to start a business that centers on running. But that's exactly what my guest today did.

If at the end of this episode you're not ready to jump on an airplane to Guatemala City, you're going to be in the minority for sure. Here are just a few of the highlights from my conversation with Greg:

He spent a lot of his running career battling injuries, until he switched to a shorter stride and stopped heel striking.
The process of picking up and moving his family to Guatemala.
A general itinerary of a weeklong Mayan Running Adventure.
Starting a local non-profit to help address a real need in the area.
Exploring new trails and meeting people along the way.
