Running Rhode Island: Spotlight on Rhode Races & Events

  • Résumé

  • In this milestone episode, we address a glaring omission from our first 25 episodes—we haven’t yet featured a guest from Rhode Island! Better late than never, right? Today, we are thrilled to welcome Susan Rancourt, co-founder and Chief Running Officer of Rhode Races & Events.

    Susan’s journey is as inspiring as her events. A lifelong runner originally from New Hampshire, Susan moved to Rhode Island, where she fell in love with the Ocean State. After a personal turning point, she left her corporate career to focus on family and her passion for running. Teaming up with Karen Zyons in 2015, she launched Rhode Races & Events, hosting some of the region’s most iconic marathons and half marathons, including those in Newport, Providence, Jamestown, and Narragansett.

    In this episode, Susan shares the evolution of Rhode Races, the unique Rhode Island coastal charm embedded in their events, and how their series of races has become a cornerstone of New England’s endurance community. We even discuss their innovative race app that points out historical locations along the route during your race! From community impact to tips for first-time runners, Susan gives us an inside look at what makes Rhode Races stand out.

    We wrap up with a celebration of why New England is the greatest endurance region in the world and a nod to some hidden gem routes Susan recommends. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just starting out, this episode is full of inspiration from the great state of Rhode Island!

    Tune in now, and don’t forget to check out rhoderaces.com and @newenglandendurance on Instagram for more!

    Art & Eric embark on a journey to showcase and celebrate the endurance sports community in New England.
