ALI FELLER
About this episode

"I mean, it's Taylor Swift Girlhood 101."

Lee Glandorf is a lifelong athlete. The former Yale University rower turned marathoner has also had a lifelong passion for fashion. So it makes perfect sense that Lee's latest endeavor is the launch of The Sweat Lookbook, a weekly newsletter that covers the intersection of sports and style. In this conversation, Lee shares her 2024 hits and misses, from BFF-inspired twinning sets at road races to surprising collaborations between big brands. Plus, she talks about how running — and fashion — have factored into her life during her recent pregnancy and now, with a six-month-old boy (Casper!) at home. (Listen to Lee's first episode of the Ali on the Run Show here.)
