Beatie Deutsch had always been athletic. But after getting married and having four children in quick succession during her 20s, she realized she’d left that athletic part of herself behind to care for her growing family. In 2015, Beatie decided to make a change and sign up for a marathon. Now, in 2021, Beatie Deutsch is a professional runner, a two-time Israeli National Marathon Champion, and the mother of five. She’s also an orthodox Jewish woman who runs in modest dress. Beatie has become an inspiration to thousands of people and is shattering stereotypes both in her home country and beyond. Ways to follow Beatie and Strides Forward OnlineFollow Beatie on Instagram:  @marathonmotherLearn about Beatie on her website: beatiedeutsch.comFollow Strides Forward on Instagram and Twitter: @StridesForwardStrides Forward is on Facebook & please join our Facebook group: we discuss women's long-distance running.
