AMR Answers: Prepping to Train for a Half; Caffeine While Running

If you’re new to running or coming back after a long break, like Jodi, this episode will speak to you, especially if you have your sights set on a half-marathon. Or maybe you’re like Gina, another 13.1’er in training, and you’re curious about caffeinated GU Energy Gels. And what about race swag, you ask, like Heather? The hosting duo of Sarah Bowen Shea and Dimity have the answers to all these concerns. 
 
Pre-Q&amp;As, Dimity details a recent deadlift workshop (!) she attended. Half-marathoners, look no further for an ideal training program. Call to record a question: 470-BADASS1 (470-223-2771).

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!
