Another Mother Runner

The Science of Women Athletes

If you’ve ever scratched your head (or shaken your fist!) at the gender gap in scientific research, this episode is required listening. Christine Yu, the author of the about-to-be-published Up to Speed: The Groundbreaking Science of Women Athletes, is the guest. Along with hosts Sarah and Amanda, Christine discusses: 
-the staggering gender disparity of sports science research; 
-practical ways that gaps in sports science affect women; 
-being part of the “golden age” of books aimed at women runners; and,
-why she has hope for the future of scientific research on women.
 
In the intro chitchat, Amanda and Sarah commiserate about being injured. Christine joins the conversation around 9:45.

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.
