RC Spotlight - Overcoming prejudice one marathon at a time with Sabina Havkins


Listen Later

Welcome to another edition of RC spotlight. Today’s show is all about an athlete who is absolutely crushing it in the marathon after not even being allowed to run long distances until later in life. Her name is Sabina Havkins and this talented runner has proven the glass ceiling is no match for her determination and perseverance.

Sabina started running as a kid in high school when women couldn’t even have their own sports team. Despite a passion for distance running, she ran the 400m to get around rules at the time against women running longer distances. She went on to run in college and is now a 4-time Boston finisher! This is such a fun runner who truly enjoys the sport. We’re going to share some of her incredible story including:

  • Her experience with prejudice while running in high school
  • How Sabina has excelled in the sport as a masters athlete
  • The ways Sabina keeps running fun while training for challenging goals
  • And we’ll hear what valuable lessons Sabina has learned along her running journey

Ask yourself - do you get enough green veggies each day?

I'll admit, I don't. It's tough to fit all of those greens in with an active and busy lifestyle. But getting in your fruits + veggies is SO crucial as a distance runner for recovery, digestion, and optimal performance.

That's where Athletic Greens is a gamechanger. One scoop has 75 bioavailable vitamins, minerals, and whole food-sourced ingredients including a multivitamin, multimineral, probiotic, green superfood blend, and more.

That means fewer stomach issues, more focus and energy throughout the day (because the workday matters just as much as the morning run), and overall ... just feeling healthier.

Look, if you're struggling to get those fruits + veggies in - or if you keep buying them but they always go bad in the fridge - Athletic Greens will make getting those micronutrients simple and delicious.
