Summary
On last week’s podcast, we shared a chapter from the first section of Becoming a Sustainable Runner, by Tina Muir and Zoë Rom. In this episode, we’re highlighting the second section, “Sustain Your Running Community.”
This chapter, “Find Your Place,” explores the ways in which connecting with others can enrich our lives as runners. Even if you’ve never had any desire to run with a group, you may change your mind after hearing Tina and Zoë’s thoughts. And if you still prefer to run alone, joining an online community can enhance your running experience immeasurably. A good place to start is our own #Running4Real Superstars community on Facebook.
The audiobook of Becoming a Sustainable Runner is available on Amazon, Audible and iTunes; the print version is available from all major booksellers and the ebook is available on Amazon.
