Description

Spending time outdoors can help us heal, but what if we could use it to help others heal, too?   Elizabeth Carr has used the outdoors to help her heal from her own trauma. She also works with Back on My Feet, an organization that uses running to help the homeless, well, get back on their feet. Elizabeth tells us all about her personal journey to running and how it clears her head.    We also hear about her claim to fame: she’s in the Guinness Book of World Records...but not for running.  Things mentioned in the show: Runner’s World: https://www.runnersworld.com/ Back on My Feet: https://www.backonmyfeet.org/   Elizabeth’s favorite piece of outdoor gear: Craft Hybrid weather Gloves: https://amzn.to/2uCfB1W    Elizabeth’s most essential outdoor gear:  Backpack (notes from Elizabeth in quotes): "Actually a cycling bag but I use it for running because of the lumbar cushion, chest strap and waist strap and the fact that it is 100 percent waterproof made of dry bag material!"  https://www.provizsports.com/en-us/reflect360-waterproof-dry-bag-1694.html   Follow Back on My Feet on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/backonmyfeet/ Affiliate links included above.   -----   Register for our newsletter for a chance to win a free Humans Outside decal: https://humansoutside.com/contact-us/  Don’t forget to follow @HumansOutside on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/humansoutside/ Share your own outdoor life with the hashtag #humansoutside365.   Connect with us on Facebook: https://humansoutside.com/   How are you spending your outdoor time?
