In this episode of Running to the Castle you’ll learn how Amanda transformed her half marathon experience from a 4-hour struggle to a confident 3:15 finish. 

She shares how she rebuilt after illness and setbacks, shifted to smarter pacing with intervals, practiced fueling earlier and more consistently, and leaned on strength training and recovery strategies to stay strong. 

Amanda also talks about the mental side of racing, from handling “dark miles” to celebrating progress, and how a family-centered Disney running tradition keeps her motivated and joyful.

  Hi, I'm Dr. Ali
  I've been running for 15+ years and been in the rehab space since 2012 when I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy Degree. I get injury prone runDisney runners across the finish line without feeling broken.
