Another Mother Runner

Rest and Recovery Advice for Runners

Any runners looking to avoid injury, feel stronger, or improve their performance need to listen to this enlightening, entertaining episode with guest Sage Rountree, Ph.D., a recovery coach, former Ironman, and author of The Athlete’s Guide to Recovery. Along with hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Tish Hamilton, Sage tells:
-how she’s gracefully accepted being a walker now, not a runner; 
-why runners need to take rest—before it comes for them; 
-what ice baths and hazing have in common; 
-a surprising answer of her favorite recovery tool; and,
-how training for a race is like toasting a marshmallow!
 
Tish shares some St. Patrick’s Day in Savannah tales before Sage saunters in around 9:49.
