For The Long Run

For The Long Run is about the why behind endurance. Every week, Jonathan Levitt sits down with runners, adventurers, and creators to unpack the mindset, stories, and lived experiences that drive people to push their limits.

These conversations go deeper than training logs or race recaps. They’re about identity, resilience, curiosity, and the parts of sport that make us more human.The show has featured world-class athletes, everyday runners, coaches, creators, and people who simply love the process of getting better.

The goal is simple: tell honest stories, keep things relatable, and help listeners feel more connected to their own journey.Whether you’re training for your first 5K, chasing a big PR, or just love hearing real conversations from people who care about growth, For The Long Run is the place for you.

I’m not very fast, but running is a constant and sustaining part of my life. This podcast, with wonderful, probing interviews that truly let the subjects speak (but which still have challenging questions) resonates with what gets me out on the roads every day.

This podcast is for the long run or short run, and every run! Training for a marathon can be a LOT easier when you can listen to this podcast! I get lost in the great conversations and when I should be struggling I find myself laughing and smiling down the road. Thank you for this wonderful podcast! That means a LOT – thank you!
