Have you ever gotten to the start line of a race and felt like you don’t belong there? How about seeing pics of yourself running & thinking , “ I don’t even look like I’m running”? There are so many reasons why we as runners might not feel like we’re “good enough”. But I’m here to tell you that you are. I am. We all are. I hope there’s something helpful in this episode just for you. As always, thanks for listening…and remember I’m not an expert in anything except my own experiences which I share with you in each episode!

In this week’s episode, I share all of the tips/tricks I know for making your sweltering summer miles more bearable! Joining me in studio ( my walk-in closet) is my 13 yr old son, Gatlin, who knows a thing or two about summer heat. I also give a few examples of times I’ve experienced some type of heat sickness over the past couple of years & how that makes me more careful in the triple digit AZ temps. Lastly, I share a glimpse of last weekend’s group trail run with Lisa Pozzoni ( @trucoachlisa on IG) and her #trutribeteam . I hope you enjoy and as always…thanks for listening!
