Description

Sarah and Katie have a lively conversation with fitness expert and race announcer Fitz Koehler, whose just-published book, My Noisy Cancer Comeback, details her 15-month fight in vanquishing breast cancer. Fitz shares:
-the power of perspective and a mantra (hers = “I can do hard things.”);
-how runners became her “go-go juice,” combating radiation’s harsh side effects;
-the importance of having a passion during difficult times;
-the touching tale of a lucky rock someone slipped her during her treatment; and,
-her prognostication for 2021 races.

In the intro chitchat, Sarah shares at-long-last news about her dancing son, and Katie talks about her 2016 breast cancer journey. (Remember to search for “BAMR Breasties” on Facebook.) Fitz joins the convo at 14:10.

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!
