Episode 108: SFRC x ROTB Exchanging Experiences with Oscar Mejorada

Runners of The Bay

In our third Exchanging Experiences live podcast conversation at San Francisco Running Company supported by Nike Trail we talk with Oscar Mejorada. Oscar shares his story of building community, creating a legendary route from the top of Tam, across the East Bay to the top of Diablo and back again, and negative splitting the Boston Marathon!

Exchanging Experiences is a live event held at SFRC in San Anselmo at 6pm on the 4th Wednesday of each month. Subscribe to SFRC’s Youtube so you can catch the livestream and follow SFRC on Instagram.
