Description

Chasers of big goals, take a listen: Sarah and Tish chat with Vanessa Corcoran, Ph.D., author of the new memoir It’s a Marathon, Not a Sprint, which details her juggling-act of marathon training while pursuing her doctorate degree. Vanessa talks about:
-being open about taking bigger risks for potential bigger rewards;
-going gluten-free after a Celiac diagnosis while marathon training;
-the ways running eases her clinical anxiety; and,
-the importance of a strong support network—for running, work, + parenting.
Before the guest joins at 17:56, Sarah and Tish commiserate about injuries—and Sarah details her teen son’s recent major dance performances.

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!
