Another Mother Runner

AMR Answers #21

Sarah and Dimity counsel Pamela (and Katie) from Virginia about cross-training, telling them it should be a complement to running—something that makes you feel energized, not depleted. They remind Chicagoan Ellen to ask herself what her 26.2 intentions are when deciding whether to run other races during her upcoming marathon training cycle. The duo suggests options to on-her-feet Tia from Fort Hood, Texas, for making her legs and feet feel ready to run even after a full day of work. Finally, with a little help from Lemony Snicket, they tell Julie in Soulsbyville, Calif., how to get over her fear of running in the dark. To find your perfect-fitting bra and get 15% off your first purchase, go to thirdlove.com/amr now
