When Heat Cancels Your Running Race

If you’re a runner and you live on Planet Earth, you need to listen to this episode! Three guests impacted by the cancellation of the 2023 Twin Cities Marathon, including the race director, talk with hosts Sarah and Tish about how the weather sabotaged the day. Learn: 
-how the event week unfolded, leading to the cancellation; 
-extra safety precautions taken for hot conditions; 
-the story of one runner who still ran 26.2; 
-how races might morph to meet the climate crisis; and,
-the spirit and support locals showed rogue runners. 
 
Before the race director joins the show around 11:38, Tish and Sarah take a quirky conversational detour about rain.

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!
