Running Buddies featuring Sam Ayyash (THN Labs)
Description
On today's episode of Running Buddies, I run with Sam Ayyash, the founder of the nutrition company THN Labs. Ayyash discusses his transiton to trail runner on the Bruce Trail, highlighting his decision to leave social tracking apps to focus on the sensory experience of nature. Our conversation explores the origins of his business, which focuses on real-food energy gels made from unique ingredients like tahini and maple syrup. Ayyash emphasizes a philosophy of patience and organic growth, positioning his products as a natural supplement to combat palate fatigue during long distances. We also stress the importance of supporting local brands within within our own communities.
