Summary
Sarah and Dimity dive into questions posted by their Facebook community, serving up answers about how to hire a running or triathlon coach; the necessity of hill repeats (resulting in a new slang term, “The Dimity”); and how to return to running after an injury. The mother runners debate having a time goal for a debut marathon, which—news flash—isn’t simply twice a half-marathon, and whether losing weight is realistic for a faster finish time. And, don’t get up in arms, but the gals talk about arm swing while running. Find out first what household calamity Dimity has to deal with after recording the show. Check out the absolutely challenging Sarah’s coach has had her doing (very poorly, SBS admits). And, finally, here’s the promised link to AMR running retreat next April in Little Rock.
