Another Mother Runner

A New Masters-Age Runner on Aging + Slowing Down

No matter what stage of running you are in—from pushing a stroller to slowing down due to age—this episode is a must-listen! Host Sarah and Amanda Loudin have a wide-ranging conversation with Amanda Parrish Morgan, a contemplative marathon runner whose book of essays is called Stroller. The guest shares:
-her stark reckonings with getting gray hair early and slowing down; 
-how coaching cross-country taught her to be kinder to herself;
-the impermanence of running; 
-how running with a stroller helped her hone speed and avoid injuries; and, 
-the stroller as a metaphor for parenthood.
 
In the intro, co-host Amanda talks about her recent Colorado half-marathon. The Other Amanda runs in around 11:25.
