Description

Sarah and Dimity talk with three mother runners, including the pregnant founder Still I Run, about their journeys with depression and anxiety and how running helps them keep moving forward. Listen and learn:
-what it is about running that gives them each a boost;
-how Still I Run is fighting the stigma attached to mental illness;
-the power of writing and journaling;
-how one of them stopped “catastrophizing” a running injury; and
-the beauty of observing and appreciating the “mundane” parts of life.
In the intro, hear about Dimity’s hike up a 14er. The first of three guests enters this important conversation at 17:55.

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!
