Jen Vega never planned on being a business owner. Originally a teacher, she and her husband Martin got started on their business ventures by selling Martin's truck for some start up funds. One thing led to another, and eventually Jen and Martin found themselves buying the local running store in their town of Midland, Texas. 7 years later, Midland Athletic Company has grown to include a running store, a bike shop, a holistic health center, and a race timing and event business. Listen in to this episode to learn more about Jen, how she balances her time between being a business owner and a mom of 3 boys, and what it's like to build an active community in the heat of Texas. Listeners can check out Midland Athletic Company online at: https://midlandathleticcompany.com/
