Another Mother Runner

#314: How to Rock Your Running Race

Listen in to the sitdown Sarah and Dimity had with Coach Amanda Loudin and Dr. Justin Ross at the recent AMR Run + Refresh Retreat in Ogden, Utah. Recorded in front of mother runners who were hours away from running the Ogden Marathon, the experts share mental and physical tips for performing your best in a race. The quartet share personal anecdotes of when they turned around a flagging race effort, and the coaches offer numerous tips on how to pull yourself out of a negative “valley” mid-race. Whether you utilize the experts’ advice in an upcoming race or tuck it into your tiny keypocket for later use, we guarantee you’ll take away helpful nuggets. (No intro chitchat—episode dives right into panel discussion.)

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!
