🌟November Runner Spotlight🌟
Meet Josh Weathers! Born in Muskegon, Josh wanted to run ever since he cheered on a friend at the North Country 50-miler in 2012, but he didn't actually pick it up until high school. He signed up for a running class for two semesters where the XC coach would follow and beg him to join the team. Josh never joined the team and completely stopped running after the classes were done and still doesn't know why. After years of his main hobby simply being "having hobbies," a pair of barefoot shoes sparked his curiosity to run again. After only two runs, he decided to pick up a real pair of running shoes, and the running habit stuck. Now running for just over a year, he logs 20 to 30 miles a week purely for the love of it, using at least one solo run a week as a necessary therapeutic mental reset.
A total people person who loves running with friends, Josh is endlessly thankful for the community he's found in the Run Muskegon family. He's always eager to support others in their goals because he’s so loose with his. He’s known for following literally anyone's training plan except his own - frequently logging those miles in a cotton shirt. When he isn't running, you'll find him biking, climbing, or doing anything outdoors, occasionally squeezing in video games when time allows. He swears he wants to get into movies and reading, but simply can't sit still long enough to make it through them.
Josh is always happy to meet new people, so if you see him, be sure to say “Hi!”
