How Cooldown Running Became the Largest Run Club in America
Join us for Boulderthon x Rivian Run Series Part II, where Jon Levitt from For The Long Run podcast will chat with Daniel Belk, co-founder of Cooldown Running. What began as a local run club in Denver, now brings together over 1,000 runners every week for its Denver chapter and has since grown into the largest run club in America. With chapters in cities like Austin, New York, Minneapolis, San Diego, Dallas, Nashville, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, and Colorado Springs, Cooldown Running has truly taken the nation by storm – and Daniel thinks it’s just the beginning. Daniel will share the story of how Cooldown grew into this massive community, covering the highs, lows, and everything in between.
In this casual conversation, Jon and Daniel will explore how Cooldown has built such a strong and inclusive community that keeps people excited about running. They’ll dive into the club's approach to connecting runners of all levels, and how social media played a huge role in its success.
