A running influencer, a storyteller of running history, and oftentimes a comedian of the sport, Hillary Burgess has made a name for herself in the sport of running. And it all started with a bit of curiosity.

When Hillary started her Instagram channel, @running_up_that_hillary, she didn't even consider it could turn into a popular running page. But she kept posting content that was funny, true and authentic. No games. Nothing fake. That authenticity has attracted a ton of running fans.

Similarly, as she became more of a fan of the sport of running, her curiosity made her do more research into the sport's history. She found a lot of interesting stories and thought, "Why not share this with more people in a podcast?" And now, "Today in Running History" is a household name in the running podcast space, and it has a ton of great stories and interviews with runners of all eras.

Hillary is the example that if you stay true to yourself and pursue your interests to the fullest, there's no telling what you'll accomplish.
