Description

This is the ideal episode for anyone who loves to go big—or read about people who do. Hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Tish Hamilton have a fun conversation with Keira D'Amato, a mother runner perhaps best known for, in 2022, breaking a 16-year American record in the marathon. In addition to talking about her brand-new book Don’t Call It a Comeback: What Happened When I Stopped Chasing PRs, and Started Chasing Happiness, Keira shares: 
-the healing properties of running for her; 
-what a 2013 marathon taught her re: not taking training for granted; 
-how motherhood changed her approach to running; 
-her “magical” mantra while marathon training in 2022; and
-her, um, unconventional root-beer float recipe! 
Before Keira joins around 11:19 , the hosts detail their recent, friend-filled weekend getaways.
