Summary
Whether you think a daily running habit is enviable—or certifiable!—you’ll love listening to conversations with four women who have run streaks. Join hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Tish Hamilton to learn:
-how each gal’s streak got started;
-what a “streak saver” is;
-how a streak reinforces the runner-identity of one BIPOC guest;
-how a running streak serves as a safety net for consistency; and,
-how (+ if!) the guests envision an end to their streaks.
The hosts time-travel to 1970s NYC in the intro; the first run-streaker joins at 10:01. (Link to guest-recommended book.) This episode originally aired on September 2, 2022.

| 0:23.7 | Welcome to another mother runner. This is Sarah Bowen-Shay. I'm joined by Tish Hamilton. Hello, Tish. |
| 0:29.8 | Hello, Sarah. You are coming to us still from a closet, but in a different state than you usually are. |
| 0:36.8 | I'm not out of the closet yet. |
| 0:39.6 | But I am in Georgia now instead of in New Jersey. |
| 0:43.3 | And it is, for any listener that's ever thinking about moving to Savannah, |
| 0:50.3 | I have a recommendation, which is to move at any time of year except for the month of August. |
| 0:57.1 | Gee, why is that, Tish? |
| 0:59.5 | You know what? |

| 1:06.0 | It is 93% humidity and 75 degrees every morning when I get up to go for my run, which does result |

| 1:28.6 | That's right. |
| 1:31.6 | Oh my goodness. Wow. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. But so college drop off. I saw a picture or two on |
| 1:38.8 | Instagram. Yes, I took my daughter. My ex-husband and I drove our daughter. I flew back to New Jersey over the weekend and we drove into New York City to drop her at Barnard College. And that was a really big day. I mean, it's such a big milestone. Right. And in the kids' life and in my life, because she and I had lived together for almost 12 years, |
