Today, I speak to a pro runner who represented two countries in the Half Marathon championship in 2013, is a 2nd place finisher in the 2007 Chicago Marathon, qualified at the Olympic trials thrice, and is a co-founder of Roll Recovery, Adriana Nelson.

Being a pro runner at her age makes me wonder what are the challenges Adriana has faced while building her career and as she continues to be a pro runner. And so we hear from her how she started running and what's the biggest challenge she encountered as an athlete.

Her experiences in running and the discipline she gained from it have truly paid off in what she is doing now. She also tells me how she approaches her fellow athletes on and off the track.

If you're someone who's nearing making a big transition from being an athlete or other profession to another career, Adriana shares a few tips to keep in mind that may help you better prepare for what's coming your way.

Adriana and I also talk about how she and her husband started their own company, Roll Recovery, and the different challenges they had overcome during the critical process of turning their product into reality.
