#478: Latina Runners Share Their Experiences

Sarah and Katie enjoy candid conversations with three Latina runners in this second installment of our series Run in My Shoes, in which we aim to amplify the voices of a wider array of runners. The guests detail:
-overcoming guilt imposed by their extended families at taking time to run;
-the empowering effects of running;
-the viewpoint of running held by many in the Hispanic community;
-concerning incidents precipitated by racial profiling; and,
-ways to welcome more Latinas into the world of running.
In the intro chitchat, Katie shares an embarrassing dog anecdote and Sarah kvetches about earlier wake-ups. The primer invitada joins at 15:00.

A family of three podcasts to get (+ keep) you moving without losing your family, job, or sanity! Nearly 1,000 (!) back episodes to enjoy.

Every Friday on the original show (launched in 2011), host Sarah Bowen Shea, a mom of three and veteran of 14 marathons, is joined by a rotating cast of co-hosts and often a guest expert to discuss topics ranging from how to reach a big race goal to finding your athletic happy place, and everything in between. Training, nutrition, motivation, mental toughness, TMI issues: This show covers it all (and then some!). 

Many Happy Miles and AMR Answers drop on alternate Tuesdays: Many Happy Miles is hosted by AMR co-founder Dimity McDowell and Sarah Wassner Flynn, and it celebrates and explores all types of forward movement, whether an epic hike, century ride, or your first brisk walk after a setback. The co-founding duo of Sarah and Dimity host AMR Answers, providing insightful responses to listeners’ called-in questions. All three shows are witty and conversational, making them great running partners because the AMR gals do all the talking—even on the uphills!
