Run Like a Mother
Run Like a Mother: How to Get Moving--and Not Lose Your Family, Job, or Sanity | Dimity McDowell, Sarah Bowen Shea
8 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
In Run Like a Mother, authors Dimity McDowell and Sarah Bowen Shea offer both inspirational advice and practical strategies to help multitasking women make running part of their busy lives. McDowell and Shea understand the various external and internal forces in everyday life that can unintentionally keep a wife--mother--working woman from lacing up her shoes and going for a run. Because the authors are multihyphenates themselves, Run Like a Mother is driven by their own running expertise and real-world experience in ensuring that running is part of their lives. More than a book, Run Like a Mother is essentially a down-to-earth, encouraging conversation with the reader on all things running, with the overall goal of strengthening a woman's inner athlete. Of course, real achievement is a healthy mix of inspiration and perspiration, which is why the authors have grounded Run Like a Mother in a host of practical tips on shoes, training, racing, nutrition, and injuries, all designed to help women balance running with their professional and personal lives.

Rant: I went on a Whisky Tango Foxtrot run...my Garmin run drill was supposed to be 12 minute warm up, run/recover :30 three times, and a 10 minute cooldown...25 minutes total. The darn thing stayed on run! 40 minutes and 53 seconds after the warm up...I called it quits. I‘m coming back from an injury- I was not ready for this. Luckily I was wearing my favorite running socks (Stance) and my fave Brooks shoes..you know- silver linings.

Another outdoor run. The kiddo started Cross Country training, so I did my C25K Week 4 Day 1. #BFCr2

This was the first book that came to mind when I thought of #shoesoncovers which was written by the hosts of one of my favorite podcasts, Another Mother Runner. #jubilantjuly. Image is from Goodreads.

At the beginning of my morning run. Love all the books by the Another Mother Runner ladies. This first book got me started racing again four years ago.

MrBook Say that five times fast! "another mother runner" If I attempted, I'd look and sound like I've come from the dentist's office and the anesthesia still hasn't weakened much yet. ? 8y
