Get Fit Pod #201 The Jenni Kirk Interview Jenni Kirk first landed on Get Fit Pod in January 2012 with her My Story blog post which inspired a whole bunch of GFP Team Mates. So much in fact that we asked her to come on the show! I don't think I have laughed harder or had more fun in an interview before, nor been more inspired to finally stop procrastinating and sign up to run a marathon. (Just check out her stats and you will see what I mean.) Jenni is a coach at the San Francisco Road Runners Club, has run 78 races including not one but TWO Ironmans. This girl is on FIRE! Not only that, she gave all you girls out there a secret tip! Her favorite running shoes are Asics Gel 1170 (which I have added to the GFP Affiliates link on the right) so you can run like a pro! I hope you enjoy listening to this interview as much as we had recording it! Never give up on your fitness goals!
