Running Sherpas: What They Are + Why You Need One
Description
This episode is an intriguing listen to any runner or triathlete: Hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Molly Williams talk with three pairs of friends who support each other in races as “running sherpas.” Find out what that term means, along with:
-the strength + help provided by these friends;
-the power of psychic bonds;
-how having a sherpa off-loads decision-fatigue;
-the importance of giving tough-love mid-race; and,
-how a phone call changed a marathon finish-time!
Before the first racer-sherpa duo joins at about 11:27 , the hosts make timely confessions. In Miles of Books at the end of the episode, Coach Liz does a deep dive into a book about confidence. (Here’s the Miles of Books book group on Facebook.) Shop for cute new merch!
