Summary
Sarah and Tish compare self-isolating (and educational!) notes from the two coasts, then are joined by a guest half a world away, Beatie Deutsch, the Israeli marathon and half-marathon champion and a mother of five young children. Beatie shares:
-how she morphed from non-runner to national champion in just four years (!!);
-what dressing modestly (complete with below-the-knee skirt + head scarf) means to her;
-what a typical marathon training week includes;
-social media advice to ensure you don’t “compete or compare” with others; and,
-how she’s coping with an inability to run due to injury + newly imposed government restrictions.
Beatie joins the conversation at 14:24.
