Beyond RunningEpisode 13: Closing the Adventure Gap with Ron GriswellThis month, I speak with Ron Griswell, he's an explorer, outdoor guide and founder of HBCUs Outside, an organization that helps students from Historically Black Colleges and Universities to get outside and participate in the outdoors, where there has been very little minority representation. The hope is that these students can start to see themselves reflected in these spaces, and share their stories to inspire others to also take part in outdoor activities and culture. Hope you enjoy!2020-11-0249 min
