Listen Later

"Running isn't therapy" ...Wait, what?! Listen to this squatchtastic conversation with Sarah Strong to find out what that statement means!


Sarah is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, UESCA certified ultrarunning coach and mom based in the Colorado Front Range. Through walk and talk sessions and virtual therapy, Sarah helps individuals cultivate self awareness, self belief and self acceptance by reconnecting them to themselves and the natural world around them. 


As an ambassador for Bigger Than The Trail, Sarah is passionate about shining a light on mental heealth through the platform of trail and ultra running. In this chat, we talk about the deep connection between mental health and running, the challenges of working through an injury and the "post-race-blues". Find out how you can get help if you're struggling right now and learn about what you can do for a friend who may be walking through a tough time.
