Description

Do we really
need to stretch before running? Is getting in 10,000 steps a day truly a
harbinger for good health? On this episode, the hosts dive into eight
common fitness myths with Danielle Friedman,  a journalist in New York who recently wrote a great piece for the New York Times where she spoke with top experts to dissect and debunk these myths, which also include: 

Runners and cyclists don’t need to strength-train their lower body;

Running destroys your knees.;

Modifications are for beginners...and more.


It’s no myth: Our brand-new event, Go The Distance, is going to be the challenge you need this spring. Join us during the weekend of April 20-21. Get all of the details and register here.

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!
