Every week on the Ali on the Run Show, I talk with inspiring people who lead interesting lives on the run and beyond. And while running is what brings us all together, on these episodes, we're digging a little deeper. These conversations are about the decisions people have made to get where they are today, and how getting sweaty has factored in. Whether you’re on the run toward something great or away from something that’s holding you back, join me on this never-ending adventure, and let’s all pick up the pace together.

    You’re doing great!
    Ali is a breath of fresh air. Her podcast is genuine and will have you laughing, crying and sometimes just making you feel not alone. From the interviews with pro runners to the life updates there is no other podcast I would rather listen to during my hours on the run!

    Favorite podcast ever
    I listen to a handful of podcasts, but I am the most faithful listener to Ali on the Run. No question. Ali is genuine, warm, and kind. We’ve never met, but she feels like a friend. She’s connected many, many elite athletes (and “back of the pack runners”) with fans, and it’s been so neat to get to know their stories and show support for them too. This podcast makes me smile every episode and fills my cup. Ali has been through so much personally and she keeps showing up. She’s everyone’s biggest fan and we, her listeners, are her biggest fans.

    The heart and soul of the running community
    Ali is the heartbeat of the running world and her podcast makes you feel like so many of the runners you see on tv are just friends you haven’t met yet.

    Best podcast, best host
    Ali is an expert interviewer, an engaging human, and the amount that she chooses to share with her community is a gift. She has an incredible ability to let us, the running community, become invested and attached to the athletes she brings on the show, who also give the gift of vulnerability because of the space that Ali creates.
  • Jessica Pansini
    The OG Podcaster
    No one does it better than Ali - asking the questions we all want to know, endless enthusiasm, a genuine love for sharing stories. Not to mention the structure of the episodes (intro, music, set up, length, ads, closing) is unmatched, and I’ve listened to a ton of podcasts. I’ve followed Ali since 2017, watched her become a mom and grow her podcast into a global sensation! There’s a reason why we all stick around. Ali’s the best of the best ❤️

    Always a good listen!
    I’ve been listening to Ali’s show since its inception and what has always impressed me is her preparation for her guests, her narrative ability in terms of guiding an interview and telling a story, and her honesty/openness about her own life, too. A seasoned journalist, Ali does an excellent job with all of her storytelling. I always look forward to her episodes!
  • openhouse87
    Thank you Ali
    This is a great podcast - Ali’s genuine curiosity and caring for other people come across in every episode. The guests and topics are interesting and inspiring. Ali’s podcast was what brought me into the running community and that has been wonderful for me!
  • mamber27
    I look forward to it every week!
    I’ve always listened to music while running, but I started listening to podcasts within the past year and have found it so much more enjoyable. I love Ali’s personality and her interview style.

    Non-runner fan!
    I’ve taken a break from running but not from Ali’s podcast! I love listening to all her episodes. She’s real, relatable, fun! An easy listen for runners and non-runners! 🫶🏻
  • Tammy0123
    Highlight of my week
    I look so forward to new episodes each week. As a longtime runner, I love hearing these back stories. Ali keeps it fun but informative always!
  • Pelo_Jennifer
    Great running content but so much more: Genuine, Witty, Heartfelt, Real, the best!
    Ali on the Run has always been one of my favorite podcasts since I became a runner in 2020. Her podcasts with everything to know about certain marathons are literally invaluable, and she interviews her running guests with wit, humor, and care. Since her cancer diagnosis she has been profound, raw, and vulnerable in a way that makes all of us feel like our dear friend is sick - Ali, we are all rooting for you to fight this with everything you’ve got! I went to her live taping in Chicago with Em Sisson and Emma Coburn and her energy is so electric and positive and cheerful. Hang in there, Ali! Hands on your back. xx
  • Ktbuo
    Simply the best
    Always my fav. Ali has immediately chemistry with everyone she talks to. I learn so much about running, runners, and life in general, plus it’s always just really entertaining and such fun to listen to. I care about the world of running because of Ali and her guests, but I also just really like Ali! It’s like listening to a friend talk to interesting people, go on big adventures and do big things, all while teaching me how to connect with and show up for others.
  • NannerRoo
    Ali!!
    Ali is the most authentic and genuine podcaster in the business. We are honored that she so generously allows us into her life- ups and downs. We are lifting her up in this time of need - so grateful to be a part of her community!
  • TLuvs2Run83
    BEST PODCAST EVAAAA!
    Hands down this is the best running podcast! Ali is so real, down to earth, and authentic. I laugh and cry in every episode! Ali’s podcasts are informative and she has the very best guests. I love listening while I’m on the run - it’s inspiring and helps me push through. So glad I found this podcast. Give it a try - you will not be disappointed!
  • danielle129
    Fantastic running podcast and beyond
    Love hearing the various interviews. I discovered the motherhood Mondays series when I had a newborn and it was so helpful. Ali is a fantastic interviewer and whenever I listen, I’m inspired to go for a run - and to be unfailingly positive, just like her.
  • Tennisknit
    Best Interviews
    Listening to this podcast is so positive and uplifting. Ali is an exceptional host and interviewer, and so naturally connects with people, which makes for fantastic interviews. It’s worth a listen, even if you don’t like running!
  • Emily415
    Best running podcast
    This podcast is awesome! Ali interviews the most elite runners, but she is an amateur runner like the rest of us. It’s an insight into mental toughness and how to get through hard moments (in running and in life).
  • kelly_crowley
    Ali is our bff
    I’ve listened to this show since 2018 and my connection to Ali feels familial. She is a remarkable professional and interviewer which makes her content brilliant, but also so bravely vulnerable and personal. You will learn so much from her podcast about running, but in the end, you’ll also have a run buddy in Ali. Highly recommend ☺️

    One of a kind
    Ali has joined me on long and short runs and she doesn’t even know it. We have logged thousands of miles together. Ali, thank you for your honesty, laughter and girl talk. Rooting for you!
  • yarringtonk
    The GOAT running podcast
    Ali on the Run podcast is my absolute favorite!! Not only does she ask the best, most intriguing questions of her guests, but she has a real gift of exploring the runner’s professional life and connecting to them on a personal level. I love getting to know the athletes on a deeper level. Ali is so relatable and feels like a friend.. along with a million other people! I highly recommend adding this podcast to the top of your subscribe list!
  • akrunzip
    A go to for years
    Ali is a positive force in this world. Her podcast is consistently engaging, up beat, and entertaining. After meeting her at the Akron Marathon twice and seeing her podcast live, i am a lifelong fan. Thank you, for being you, Ali! We love you!
  • melrunsfast
    Great interviewer
    I’ve been in the public relations / journalism industry for nearly two decades and it is such a pleasure to listen to Ali interview her guests. Ali is knowledgeable, funny, quick and most importantly asks all the questions you want to know! There is nothing more frustrating than listening to an interview and having the host miss a follow up question that is just begging to be asked! But Ali never misses them. And I appreciate that!
  • MaryBOS2025
    Heartwarming, real, relatable running podcast
    Ali makes you feel like she’s your own personal running buddy right in your ear. Whether it’s a solo episode or one where she is interviewing everyone from a pro-marathoner to a person who “has an interesting job and also runs,” Ali’s warmth and relatability shines through. She also has an awesome Facebook group that is by far and away the best little corner of the internet. Her ability to connect people and build a positive community is so inspiring!

    Being on a run with you best running friend
    I’ve been a LONG TIME listener to Ali on the Run. This is one of the best running podcasts and it is all due to who Ali Feller is. She brings so much joy to the sport in sharing who she is while uplifting runners and the sport in the process. Whether it’s a guest or just Ali on the episode it’s like being with your favorite people. She just has a way of bringing out the best of everyone she speaks to.
  • Henle the Runner
    Great!
    This show has some of the best, most entertaining running conversations! She has fantastic guests and episodes are so fun! Ask Ali episodes are some of my faves!
  • meeelisserrr
    Best podcast ever!
    Ali has been with me and my running journey for almost 7 years! I consider her my friend….is that weird?! I don’t think she would think it’s weird. She keeps me going when the miles are tough. She got me excited to watch major marathons and introduced me to my favorite runners. Love her conversations, love all of her runner friends, love this podcast!
  • Jessimcc729
    Favorite podcast!
    This is one of my favorite podcasts whether I’m listening on the run or at home. Ali is an amazing host, brings on amazing guests, and is incredibly vulnerable and brave sharing her personal life. This podcast has helped get me through it all- training for a marathon, getting a stress fracture, heart break, stopping running for three years, and now resuming running again.

    A Gem of a Show by a Gem of a Person
    I’ve listened to Ali on the Run for years and it is one of my favorite podcast. Ali is someone who continues to make the running community a better place just by being her wonderful self.
  • oustretchedarms
    Thank you, Ali!
    I love this podcast and find it to be one of the most comforting podcasts that I listen to. It gives me a reprieve from the world in a space where I feel is often just happy and a place where I can relax and retreat to as I am running. thank you, Ali, for being such a curious person who is also so down to earth!
  • Cydne F
    Ali, everyone’s favorite!
    Ali is more than a running podcaster, race announcer, media person…. She is everyone’s favorite running personality! Raw and real with both the professional athletes she interviews and with her own life. She is relatable and lovable. She’s got this and is doing great!! I love having her join me on my runs!
  • JFLipod
    Five Stars. No Notes
    I’ve been listening for two years and love everything about this podcast. Thank you for sharing your triumphs and challenges with us! The majors recap pods are my favorite!
  • K8Pel
    The reason I run
    I found this podcast when Ali interviewed a Peloton instructor I like. I had been a runner many years ago, but taken several decades off. Listening to Ali gave me the bug again. She is warm, funny, and asks the questions real people actually want to know. She’s also honest and vulnerable: after I got my UC diagnosis, I literally listened to her episodes on Crohn’s/Colitis on the way to and from doctor’s appointments. And after a very difficult birth of my first child, I set my sights on the marathon that Ali talks so much about: NYC. Last fall I got in via the lottery and ran my first ever marathon. It was a magical, lifetime bucket list kind of a day. I’m so, so grateful to this sweet corner of the internet for having such a profound effect on my life ❤️ How’s that for a review???!! 😉

    My best running friend
    Ali has turned me from a casual runner to a fangirl of the sport (and her)! She reaches her audience with such authenticity and kindness. There is a reason why her fans occupy the most supportive corner of the internet! Her interviews with pro runners highlight the behind the scenes of the sport in a way that’s accessible and fun. I’ve been a listener for about 4 years and love going to live shows!

  • Mamadocruns
    Best Running Podcast
    Ali on the Run is the best podcast. As a relatively new runner, I have learned so much about the sport through her conversations with experts in the field. But the best part is the way that Ali captures the magic of running and how it unites people from so many walks of life. Her incredible energy and joy encourages so many people to keep going in life and on the run. I always look forward to listening. It feels like a friend in my ears whether on the run or in the car.
  • AmyMusician
    The Heart of the Running Community!
    Ali is the heart and soul of the running community- warm, real, and endlessly inspiring! Her podcast is my absolute favorite and has gotten me through my long runs and marathon training etc. She’s a brilliant interviewer who brings out the best in every guest and makes the listener feel like part of the conversation. Whether she’s chatting with pros, everyday runners or sharing her own journey, Ali so beautifully brings out the human side of the sport (and life) in a way that’s inspiring, uplifting and always authentic. This podcast is a must-listen for runners of all levels. Thank you, Ali!
  • White Mtn Skier
    The best podcast out there
    Real people running and life. What else is there to say? Ali pours her heart into every episode and we feel that when we tune in! Rally for Ali 💜
  • lb298765
    Ali made me a running fan
    I started listening to Ali on the Run when I was training for my first marathon a few years ago. She’s been my constant companion on runs ever since and because of her, I’ve gotten to know and become a fan of so many pro runners. Ali’s podcast is fun, funny, and insightful. She’s brought us along on all her life’s journeys too, and makes you feel like she’s your friend. Ali is a true light in this world. You’re doing great, Ali!
  • Clafonnnnn
    Authentic connection
    My - hands down- favorite podcast. I luckily found this when I started running post partum, and it helped me feel like I was a “real” runner no matter my pace or distant. We have shared so many miles together. I’ve grown to be obsessed with running and the sport now - watching and learning about the pros and talking about them like they are my real life friends. Ali creates an authentic connection with her listeners. Her joy, love and optimism is evident within seconds. She is a true light in this world - and you won’t ever regret listening to an episode!
  • Newqs1970
    One of the best!
    An excellent mostly running related podcast. Ali is positive and full of good vibe energy. She is honest and incredibly caring. Her guest list is amazing with many elite runners from all distances. Also I love all of her behind the scenes podcasts about the logistics of huge events like major marathons and the Olympics.
  • Kate3301
    Just the best
    Every episode is a chance to meet someone new, learn something new, or catch up with Ali. I love them all.
  • Rachaelrunner
    Like running with your BFF
    After all my running buddies moved away during the pandemic I replaced them with Ali, and it says a lot that five years later I’m still choosing to run solo! Love the mix of guests and the obvious research that she puts into prepping for interviews.
  • Nmm15
    Best running friends
    The reason that Ali’s Facebook group is called the “Best Running Friends” is obvious when you listen to this podcast. Ali makes you feel like her friend, and makes you feel like you could be friends with all of the runners, professionals,celebrities and “average runners” on her show. Love listening to this show every time!
