Writers on the Run records conversations with writers who are also runners. The project produces audio interviews that are available as downloadable podcast episodes. Interviews are conducted while running (or jogging or even walking, depending on the author’s preferences). All interviews will be the same length — 5 kilometers — because the “5K” is such a classic distance for runners. The duration of episodes varies with the pace at which we want to move. Given that the interview needs to take place at a conversational pace, expect episodes to run between 40 minutes and an hour. The 5K is long enough to reveal some insights into the author’s running and writing life, while also being short enough to keep the conversation focused.
