Eliza Fletcher – Heinous, Senseless, Murder – Safety Tips from Tasha Ina Church

Hello Runners!

This must stop! Another young woman was violently murdered while out for a run!

Eliza Fletcher from Memphis, wife, mother of two boys, and a Kindergarten teacher, was out for a run on Friday, September 2, 2022. She was running at about 4:00 AM, just doing what she loved, when he violently attacked, abducted, and murdered her. This psychopath dumped her body behind an abandoned house in tall grass. 

This murder was a heinous, senseless, and disgusting crime by a sick, psychopath, fucking animal of a so-called human being. And it pisses me off—no reason for this whatsoever. 

I talk about Eliza and other murdered female runners in this episode, and I don’t hold back. However, if you are sensitive to a little rough language, please be aware, and I apologize in advance for my language. 

I also replay an interview in late 2020 with Self Defense Instructor Tasha Ina Church. She went through a very uncomfortable episode while running with a male scumbag following her. Tasha knows over 850 Self Defense moves. And even so, this encounter shook her to the core. 

We talk about that, and Tasha provides valuable self-defense tips and techniques. Even one of them can save a life. Very much worth a listen.

Thank you, runners, for listening to the Feel-Good Running Podcast! Please consider sharing this podcast with your running friends and on your social media platforms if you like it. I do not spend money to advertise my podcast. Instead, I try to grow it organically, which is by you, my listeners, sharing it! Thank You!

Remember to be kind to others, even if some are not kind to you. The world is terrifying these days, as was just experienced in Memphis. Yet, we all need to make a difference now more than ever. So be aware, be safe, and enjoy your run! Peace everyone!

~ Jim
