  • Finding Balance in Movement and Meditation with Santiago Ortega
    Jun 3 2025

    In this episode, I sit down with Santiago Ortega, a San Antonio runner, run club coordinator, and small business owner.

    Ortega is doing some great stuff in these spaces, providing a refreshing take on running's art form in the process. I'm stoked this conversation is hitting your ears. We cover the gamut in this podcast.
