In episode #64 of the podcast, Dr. Kate and Dr. Kacy interview the voice of the Atlanta Track Club, Ronnel Blackmon. Ronnel discusses how training for the upcoming NYC marathon has sparked a renewed love of running (he ran high school track) and how he uses running as a platform to inspire others, cultivate community, and give back to others. Ronnel is running as a member of Team in Training and using the marathon as a platform for fundraising for this group that supports the Leukemia and Lymphoma society. Ronnel is a proud husband of Tinika Blackmon and father of their two children and is often recognized as a “local celebrity” in Atlanta sports and social circles.

During the interview Ronnel talks about his background in various sports growing up playing basketball and football and his pursuit of fitness motivated in part by his modeling career. He also talks about his training and humility in working to become an emcee and his process of personal growth in pursuing this new professional role. Ronnel goes on to talk about his guiding principles in life and what grounds him in addition to sparking his passion and zest for life. As he says, “Well, you know I give four F’s…It’s faith, family, fitness, and fashion”

The energy Ronnel brings to the conversation around running cannot be denied! He discusses his own personal growth and resilience that training for a marathon has taught him. He also talks about his own podcast, “Holla Black,” and the inspiration that led to its creation of leaving a legacy of positivity with his voice and others who use their leadership nurture inclusiveness. The podcast title “BLACK” stands for “Brave Leaders that are Accountable for Communicating Knowledge.”
