Another Mother Runner

Runners Who Survived Cardiac Incidents

Anyone concerned about heart health (read: should be everyone!) needs to listen to this episode featuring two women runners—one who survived open-heart surgery after an aortic tear, the other who had a heart attack mid-run. With Sarah and Ellison, the survivors share: 
-their harrowing heart-related tales; 
-that the emotional/mental recovery is taking longer than the physical; 
-the importance of not dismissing warning-sign symptoms;
-the commonality of women’s responses to health crises; and,
-their returns to running and exercise. 
 
Be sure to catch the debut of Miles of Books, a monthly bonus segment, at the end of this episode. Here are the books discussed by Ellison, SBS, and Liz. The first guest joins around 11:51.

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!).
