Three Runners Who Finally (!!) Hit Their Time Goals
About this episode
This episode is ideal for any athlete who sets goals and strives for them, regardless of whether that goal involves a time on a race clock or not. Host Sarah Bowen Shea and Molly Williams talk with three women who achieved long-held time goals—one in a 5K, another in a half-marathon, and another in a marathon. The guests share:
-how to find (+ maintain!) the requisite mental commitment;
-how intentional training can reignite a passion for running;
-the wisdom gained from consistency;
-how running taught one gal to be more flexible; and,
-how to “hang on” in the final miles of a race.
Before the first guest joins around 9:50, the hosts reminisce about the half-marathon in which Sarah helped Molly achieve her goal time (complete with too-short running skirts!). Head here to sign up for notifications about Sarah and Dimity’s next steps.
