Description

Sarah and Dimity, buzzing from the Love the Run You’re With 2.0 virtual relay race weekend, gab with three gals who took part in the solo-yet-very-much-part of-a-team event. Live vicariously as:

Brooke recounts recreating elements of an episode of The Office with her teammates;

Lisa extols the delight of tapping into creativity by scheming team names, batons, and costumes;

Lisa and Emily detail getting soaked by storms;

all three talk about becoming fast friends with other runners who were strangers just days before; and,

Emily shares the profound impact it made for teammates to “meet each other where they were.”

In the intro, Dimity and Sarah recount their relay experiences, with Dimity cycling her segments. Brooke joins the conversation at 18:36.

This weekly podcast explores the intersection of running and mothering; it was launched in 2011 by the authors of RUN LIKE A MOTHER: HOW TO GET MOVING AND NOT LOSE YOUR FAMILY, JOB, OR SANITY. Host Sarah Bowen Shea, a mom of three and veteran of 14 marathons, is joined by a rotating coterie of co-hosts and often a guest expert to discuss topics ranging from how to reach a big race goal to the value of a best running friend, and everything in between. Training, nutrition, motivation, mental toughness, TMI issues: These mother runners cover it all (and then some). This witty, conversational podcast makes a great running partner because these gals do all the talking—even on the uphills!
