We are so happy to welcome Christine Yu to the Suite Run Podcast! Christine is a freelance journalist covering sports, science, and health. She's currently working on a book that looks at the under-representation of women in sports science research and the implications of this data gap for girls and women in sports. Christine lives in Brooklyn with her husband and two kids and in this conversation we talk about Christine's upcoming book and what her running is like these days. Then we talk all about living and running in Brooklyn! Christine gives us great recommendations on where she likes to RUN, dine out, grab a beer and more - including hanging out at a cemetery?  

Don't miss this great conversation!
