Take Off Your Shoes 19 - Tabor and Eli Hemming

About this episode

Bora Ergör interviews Tabor and Eli Hemming about their lives as athletes and the importance of balance and embracing every moment.

Hello and welcome to another episode of Take Off Your Shoes! My guests today are—that’s right, plural—the power couple: Tabor and Eli Hemming! This episode was exactly what I was looking for when starting this podcast: to get to know the people in this sport, who they are beyond the sport. We discussed the importance of being multi-dimensional, not just as athletes but as people. We explored how they’re intentional with their time, balancing friends, family, farm work, coaching, and trail running. They also openly shared their feelings about Tabor’s father’s recent diagnosis, highlighting how fleeting life can be and the value of embracing every moment. I was truly inspired by the maturity of their approach to life and sport, and I hope you will find them equally inspirational. Tabor, Eli, thank you so much for such an amazing conversation. Hope you enjoy listening. The Hemming Way - their Substack The Hemmings - their Youtube Channel Follow Tabor on Instagram Follow Eli on Instagram Shoot me a DM for your thoughts and comments!
