On the ninth episode of Habitual Routine, join Coach Annick Lamar as she helps you assemble your support crew with the help of Joseph Gray, 18-time United States national champion and 2-time World Mountain Running champion. Coach Annick and Joseph  define what a support crew does and who you need in it, but first they advise you to reflect on yourself as a runner: Do you need people to show up for you on race day physically or emotionally—or maybe a mix of both? Then, they deep dive into how to logistically plan for assembling your team: how to ask, how to prepare them, and most importantly, how to express gratitude and bring your support crew along for the journey. With years of experience assembling crews, Joseph provides a master class in successfully planning and executing this integral component of your virtual marathon preparations. Follow Joseph Gray.
