    In this episode of Run Build Grow, host Andrew Ware sits down with Dr. Marc Adams from Movement is Medicine to explore innovative approaches to physical therapy and community wellness. Dr. Adams shares how patient-centered care and customized treatment plans can lead to better outcomes, especially when operating outside traditional insurance networks. His work prioritizes accessibility, offering direct access to physical therapy without a physician referral, flexible payment options, and treatment schedules designed around long-term wellness and injury prevention. Beyond the clinic, Dr. Adams is deeply involved in community engagement, providing free assessments, workshops, and hands-on support for local running and fitness communities. He highlights success stories of athletes and active individuals who have benefited from this holistic approach to care. Backed by research, he emphasizes that movement itself is the most effective medicine, often yielding better results than other interventions. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, optimizing performance, or simply looking to stay active, this conversation offers valuable insights into how personalized care can transform your health and movement.

    When Joby Olguin moved from Arkansas to Portland, he wasn’t just starting a new chapter—he was rebuilding his sense of community. In this episode, he shares what it’s like to leave behind a tight-knit run club and step into a new, unfamiliar space, searching for connection through the sport he loves. Joby and Andrew dive into the evolution of run clubs, the balance between social and competitive running, and the importance of showing up as your authentic self. They also explore the deeper role running communities play—not just in training but in shaping conversations around identity, privilege, and inclusion. Through personal stories and candid reflections, Joby offers a fresh perspective on running as more than just miles—it’s about growth, belonging, and the people who push us forward.
