Run Farther & Faster — The Podcast with Coaches Lisa Levin and Julie Sapper Run Farther & Faster

After a whirlwind weekend of events, a live show, meeting and reuniting with our runners, and, oh yeah, running, we sat down and recapped our Boston 2024 experience. Each year is memorable, and this year was no exception. We hope that you enjoy this conversation as much as we did recording it! We mentioned the Team Hoyt Memorial Race—here’s the link to register. https://raceroster.com/events/2024/83108/the-team-hoyt-memorial

We are already counting down the days until next year.

We are so thrilled to welcome six-time Boston Marathoner and Six Star Finisher, Dr. Benita Stephens, who will be running her seventh Boston Marathon in just a few weeks.
This year, Dr. Stephens is honored to be running the Boston Marathon with Team Bevans, a team in which members are selected annually to honor the accomplishments and legacy of Marilyn Bevans, the first U.S. born African American woman to run a sub-3-hour marathon and medal at the Boston Marathon.
In addition to being an accomplished runner, Dr. Stephens is the founder of Ciao Bella Medical Center and Spa, a gynecology center in Newnan, Georgia, that specializes in women's health care from conception to menopause. Dr. Stephens is a Board-Certified Obstetrician/Gynecologist and a member of the North American Menopause Society.
In this episode we talk all things Boston and women's health, along with tips for managing a busy career with training and much more. We learned so much from this conversation and appreciate Dr. Stephens's perspective and wisdom. Dr. Stephens can be found on Instagram @drciaobella.

Last fall, Daytona State cross country runner and mom, Shannon Jones, earned her third All-American title…at age 37! In this episode, Shannon details her untraditional journey from couch to college athlete, including how becoming a mom transformed her from a sedentary smoker to the most decorated cross country runner in Daytona State history. Shannon bravely shared why she quit athletics after high school and how she crawled her way back to running nearly two decades later, resulting in countless medals and a college degree. Shannon’s story is a powerful reminder that the path to success is full of challenges, but those challenges do not define us. Huge thanks to Shannon for joining us. Shannon can be found on Instagram @shickeyjones. For those who will be in Boston over marathon weekend, please join us on Sunday, April 14th for our shakeout run at 9 and our B.A.A. sponsored panel, which we are honored to co-host with Cherie Turner, at the Expo at 2.
