Description

Sarah goes it solo for this tribute to a race that isn’t happening on Monday: the Boston Marathon. She serves up a dozen clips from past guests, recounting their experiences at the venerable marathon, from volunteering at the expo to winning the whole dang thing! Listen to:
-Meb Keflezighi recount “the thrill of a lifetime,” winning in 2014;
-Kathrine Switzer detail her near “take-down” on the course in the then-all-male race;
-the oldest-ever female finisher tell what kept her returning every year;
-a BAMR describe the unsurpassed crowd support that propelled her to a 20-minute PR; and,
-Bethany relay her hilarious (and slightly horrifying!) birth-a-tampon story.

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!
