Sportspectrum Owner Andrew Gaspard sits down with Jeffrey Goodman, Director of Marketing and Development for the YMCA of Northwest Louisiana, to answer the following questions:
0:26 1. Andrew, you’re one of my favorite type of guests to have on here. Someone who is not from here but who is doing great things for and in our community.
You are the relatively new owner of Sportspectrum.
Let’s start here today.
Take me through how you came to live here and then to your journey to succeed a local icon, Matt Brown, in a local iconic establishment, Sportspectrum.
6:53 2. Tell me a little about all the different things that Sportspectrum sells and offers today and what we can expect to stay the same under your new leadership and some of the ways you might expand in the future.
16:10 3. All right, so that brings us to the 2024 Logjammer, the first marathon Shreveport will host in several decades. When is it and why is this an important development for our community and the running community as a whole?
20:30 4. You once said, “Running is not fun until it is fun.” Tell me a little about what you meant by this.
22:48 5. Lastly, for those out there listening talk to me about what the local fitness community looks like and any advice you might have for plugging into it.
