Description

Whether you’re already committed to weight training—or vow to start lifting soon—this is the episode for you. Hosts Sarah and Britany talk with Alyssa Ages, author of the new book, Secrets of Giants: A Journey to Uncover the True Meaning of Strength. While demystifying strength training, the guest:
-shares how a miscarriage propelled her shift from running to lifting;
-dispels the myth of bulking up; 
-offers advice for getting started, or resuming, strength training; 
-suggests how to incorporate found objects (read: rocks + more!) into your workouts; and,
-tells how to integrate lifting w/ training for a 13.1 or 26.2. 
 
Before the guest joins around 17:03, Sarah and new mom Britany have a far-reaching conversation about eye color.

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!
