Author: Adam Bratton with Guest Q&A: Chelsea Mister Read Time: 4 mins Chelsea Mister, our first ever Good Vibes Rock Hall of Famer, is no stranger to human powered activities. She has run countless marathons, just completed 42miles at this year’s Perennial Endurance Run and alongside her husband Brian Mister, Co-Founded Crown Collective which includes many iconic running events and community resources in Charlotte, NC including a weekly newsletter called “Run It Back” which is where this Peer Pressure-laced saga begins!
