Sin Miedo: Community, Belonging, and Running Without Fear
About this episode
Yolanda "Yo" Lopez Haugabook discusses the Sin Miedo Trail Runners movement and the importance of community and inclusivity in trail running.
In this episode, we sit down with Yolanda "Yo" Lopez Haugabook, co-founder of Sin Miedo Trail Runners , a BIPOC-led movement that is changing the face of trail running. Sin Miedo, which means fearless, is all about creating safe and inclusive spaces where runners of color can reclaim the outdoors and run free. We dive into the story behind the movement, the challenges of navigating spaces that have historically lacked diversity, and the importance of community, representation, and belonging. Yo shares her personal experiences, lessons learned, and the vision for a trail running world that is welcoming to everyone. This conversation is for anyone who loves the trails, believes in equity, or wants to understand how courage and community can transform outdoor spaces.
