Description

No matter your pace, this episode will intrigue and enlighten you. Running coach Jen Steele, who used to bring up the rear in races, talks with hosts Sarah and Coach Liz (who often chimes in with advice, too), about: 
-“slow” not being a pace; 
-hydration + fueling options for back-of-pack runners; 
-finding races that are friendlier to “slower” athletes; 
-overcoming imposter syndrome; and,
-the value of your goal not being related to the swiftness of your pace. 
 
Before Coach Jen joins around BARRY INSERT TIME HERE, Sarah tells about her longest run post-injury. Also, try our new, free two-week training program: Consistent, Not Perfect.

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!
