Four First-Time Marathoners
Daydreaming of registering for a marathon or in the thick of training?
Wherever you fall on the marathon-spectrum (including “no way, no
how!”), you’ll enjoy this episode. Hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Coach Liz
Waterstraat talk to four “regular” runners about their debut marathon
pursuits. They cover topics such as:
-their marathon motivations;
-the satisfaction of setting and striving toward a goal;
-how the run/walk method makes 26.2 attainable;
-the “delicious pain” that comes with covering the miles; and,
-the mountain of laundry generated during training!
Before the first marathoner joins around 10:38, the hosts share about their first marathons—and Chicagoland’s “garbage hills!” Register for our Lake Placid retreat.
