Another Mother Runner — Fitness & Nutrition
Another Mother Runner

A family of two podcasts to get (+ keep) you running without losing your family, friends, job, or sanity! More than 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 ~hour-long show covers it all (and then some!).

Every Tuesday, Miles of Books drops, alternating Ellison Weist chatting fiction one week with Sarah Bowen Shea and non-fiction with Coach Liz Waterstraat and Sarah the next. In about 30 minutes, the hosts entice and entertain you with plot descriptions and pearls of training (and life!) advice to guide you to your next great reads.

Both shows are witty and conversational, making them great running partners because the AMR gals do all the talking—even on the uphills!

AMR Trains: Meditation for Beginners and a 30-ish Day Streak Aug 30, 2022

Show notes

If you've ever wondered if trying meditation—or embarking a meditation streak—could be beneficial, tune into this podcast. Dimity and Adrienne Martini, who both attempted to meditate for 30 days straight, are joined by life coach and meditation teacher Anne Van De Water, whose first experience with meditation was before kindergarten.

After a long inhale and exhale, the trio discusses:

why meditation brings us back to our essential selves;
how the term "high maintenance pony" applies to us humans, even though we only have two legs;
a one-minute, multi-level meditation that encourages grounded presence (Anne even demonstrates!); and
how Dimity stayed calm despite Cool Ranch smells and Adrienne found grace in Iceland.
