How to Get over a Disappointing Race Another Mother Runner

This is the episode for everyone who’s ever been disappointed by a race experience. Hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Amanda Loudin talk with Emily Saul, a sports psychology and performance coach, as well as two “regular” runners who recently ran races that didn’t go as planned. The guests share:
-metrics to define success other than a finish time; 
-lessons they’ve learned about themselves from their rough races;
-ways to bounce back post-race; 
-how to foster resiliency; and,
-the importance of leaning on friends and family. 
 
Amanda tells of her total eclipse experience before the first guest joins around 6:34.
