It\u2019s a lot easier to get through things when you\u2019ve got support from others.\u201d Mario Fraioli is the host and creator of the Morning Shakeout podcast and newsletter, a running coach, and my mentor in the Tracksmith Fellowship Program. Since last fall, Mario has been an incredible resource, guiding me through the ins and outs of podcasting. He hosts the successful Morning Shakeout podcast, where you can find him in conversation with some of the top athletes, coaches, and personalities in running. Mario ran Division II track and cross country at Stonehill College, where he was the program\u2019s first ever All-American in cross country. Prior to launching the Morning Shakeout, he was a senior editor at Competitor Magazine and worked in numerous spaces in both running and media. In this conversation, we dive deep into Mario\u2019s career in journalism, his not-so-secret obsession with basketball, and his thoughts on diversity\/inclusion within the industry today. Mario is originally from Massachusetts, but currently resides in California with his wife and their (super adorable) dog, Tahoe. &amp;nbsp; In This Episode:   The Morning Shakeout Podcast &amp;amp; Newsletter Tracksmith Fellowship Program  Din\u00e9e Dorame on the Morning Shakeout Podcast | Episode 145  Coach Wooden\u2019s Pyramid of Success: Building Blocks for a Better Life, by John Wooden and Jay Carty, 2009 (Reprint) Central Mass Striders Run Club The White Lotus on HBO  McCartney 3, 2, 1 on Hulu  &amp;nbsp; Follow the Morning Shakeout:  Podcast:  https:\/\/themorningshakeout.com\/category\/the-morning-shakeout-podcast\/ Newsletter\/Subscribe: https:\/\/themorningshakeout.com\/ Instagram: @theamshakeout Twitter: @theAMshakeout Mario's Website: https:\/\/mariofraioli.com\/  &amp;nbsp; Follow Grounded Pod:  Instagram: @groundedpod Twitter: @groundedpod Facebook: facebook.com\/groundedpodwithdinee  &amp;nbsp; Subscribe, Listen, &amp;amp; Review on:  Spotify |  Apple Podcasts | Soundcloud | Stitcher &amp;nbsp; Music by Jacob Shije (Santa Clara Pueblo, NM).
