Another Mother Runner

#448: Running After COVID-19

Sarah and Katie (who had COVID-19 in July) talk with three women about their experiences with COVID-19 and their returns to running after the illness. The women detail:
-their myriad symptoms and the progression of them;
-numerous lingering side effects;
-their return to exercise, which, for one ultrarunner, meant 40 minutes to cover a flat ¼-mile;
-fire-like feelings in their lungs after formerly “easy” runs; and,
-their anecdotal advice on prevention and treatment.
In the introductory chitchat, the co-hosts talk up AMR’s OUTRUN 2020 New Year Eve Virtual 5K. The conversation turns to COVID at 6:55.

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!
