Description

This is the episode for everyone who’s ever been disappointed by a race experience. Hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Amanda Loudin talk with Emily Saul, a sports psychology and performance coach, as well as two “regular” runners who recently ran races that didn’t go as planned. The guests share:
-metrics to define success other than a finish time; 
-lessons they’ve learned about themselves from their rough races;
-ways to bounce back post-race; 
-how to foster resiliency; and,
-the importance of leaning on friends and family. 
 
Amanda tells of her total eclipse experience before the first guest joins around 6:34.

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!
