Nico Felich is the kind of guy who’ll jog up to the mic fresh from a shakeout run, then drop a line that makes you want to sprint out the door and chase your life.

In his first-ever podcast sit-down, Nico shares how a quiet college kid making dorm-life vlogs turned into a full-time creator inspiring tens of thousands to run.

He’s here to talk about walking away from the 9–5 grind, keeping your passion intact when your sport becomes your job, and why goals should guide your path—not define your worth.

From tiptoeing across the Knife Edge on Colorado’s Capitol Peak to grinding out 70–80 mile weeks in the lead-up to his first 50-miler, Nico is chasing longevity, better storytelling, and real joy in life.

Our guy is a sub-3 marathoner, a BPN athlete, and someone who splits his time between Kansas City and Phoenix.

He’s aiming for Jimmy Chin–level filmmaking (someone who can keep up with the athletes he films) and he wants you to catch the bug too.
